Château Pichon Baron, a Second Grand Cru Classé in 1855, is a flagship estate of Pauillac in the heart of the Médoc. Its neo-Renaissance château, built in 1851, overlooks 73 hectares of vines, mainly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The gravel terroir, combined with traditional expertise and modern facilities, produces powerful, elegant, and structured wines. Owned by AXA Millésimes since 1987, Pichon Baron represents Bordeaux excellence, crafting wines renowned for their complexity and impressive aging potential.
1990 vintage: Bud break and flowering were very early and followed by a very hot and dry summer with some stormy rains at the end of August. The late season was also optimal and allowed the harvest of perfectly ripe grapes. Exceptional year!
Light yellow color with lime reflections. Very round attack and intense bouquet mixing the fruits of the sun with a hint of pineapple with mineral notes of flint. The palate is marked by a long path ending on a seductive salinity.
A Left Bank benchmark, Château Sociando-Mallet 2005 is a bold and structured Haut-Médoc from an outstanding vintage. Though unclassified, it often rivals Classified Growths in quality. The nose reveals intense aromas of blackcurrant, graphite, spices, and cedar. On the palate, it is dense and powerful, with silky tannins and a long, elegant finish.
