2022 Pichon Comtesse Réserve – Pauillac’s Elegant Second Wine

The 2022 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 'Pichon Comtesse Réserve' is the refined second wine of one of Pauillac’s most celebrated estates. Drawing from the same exceptional terroir as the Grand Vin, this cuvée reflects the hallmark elegance and finesse of Pichon Lalande, offering a more approachable expression in its youth without sacrificing complexity. The 2022 vintage captures Pauillac’s power and structure while emphasizing harmony and freshness.

Tasting Notes

Lifted aromas of blackcurrant, violet, and subtle graphite unfold alongside hints of cocoa and baking spice. The palate is supple yet structured, with polished tannins framing layers of ripe cassis, plum, and mineral accents. The finish is long and graceful, making it an ideal introduction to the style of Bordeaux First Growths’ closest peers in Pauillac.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

Sourced from the estate’s meticulously farmed gravelly soils, the blend in 2022 is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and a touch of Cabernet Franc. Grapes are hand-harvested, sorted, and vinified in temperature-controlled vats before aging in French oak barrels, a portion of which are new. The estate’s precision winemaking ensures a wine of clarity, balance, and depth.

Investment & Collectibility

While crafted for earlier enjoyment, Pichon Comtesse Réserve retains the pedigree and craftsmanship of its illustrious sibling, offering collectors a versatile Pauillac to drink while their Grand Vin matures. Its limited production and consistent critical acclaim have made it a favorite among Rare Wine buyers seeking both quality and value. Perfect for your collection.

Vintage Insights

2022 was a remarkable vintage in Pauillac, marked by warm, dry conditions moderated by well-timed rainfall in August. These conditions led to small, concentrated berries with excellent tannin maturity, delivering wines with both power and precision—attributes clearly reflected in the 2022 Pichon Comtesse Réserve.

Jeb Dunnuck

(Rating (92-94). The second wine of Comtesse de Lalande, the 2022 Pichon Comtesse Réserve is based on 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot, and the rest Cabernet Franc. Ripe black and blue fruits as well as some chocolaty, tobacco nuances define the aromatics, and it's a rich, full-bodied, velvety textured second wine that's going to drink brilliantly right out of the gate. This is well worth seeking out. Tasted twice. Reviewed by Jeb Dunnuck, Issue date: May 2023. Drinking window: N/A.

(Rating (91-93). Like a number of second wines from the best classified growths, the 2022 Resèrve de la Comtesse shares much of the personality of the grand vin this year, delivering aromas of blackberries, violets and exotic spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, supple and fleshy palate with a rich core of fruit framed by powdery tannins.

(Rating (91-93). The 2022 Reserve de la Comtesse is fabulous. Vibrant and impeccable in its balance, the 2022 is so impressive, mostly because of its balance. In some recent years the Reserve has been quite potent, but the 2022 leans more into the realm of sophistication, and polish. Hints of dark-fleshed fruit, licorice, lavender and spice linger. Don't miss it. Tasted four times. Reviewed by Antonio Galloni, Issue date: April 2023. Drinking window: 2028 - 2040.
