2010 Chateau Pichon-Longueville au Baron – Pauillac Power with Precision

The 2010 Chateau Pichon-Longueville au Baron de Pichon-Longueville stands among the great modern expressions of Pauillac, reflecting both the estate’s historic pedigree and the exceptional conditions of this benchmark Bordeaux vintage. As a Second Growth with First Growth-level consistency, Pichon Baron is renowned for producing wines of structure, depth, and long-term aging potential.

Tasting Notes

Deep and concentrated, the 2010 vintage opens with aromas of blackcurrant, graphite, cedar, and dark cocoa. The palate is dense yet controlled, layered with ripe cassis, tobacco leaf, and mineral-driven tension. Firm, finely grained tannins provide remarkable structure, carrying through to a long, focused finish that underscores the wine’s balance and longevity.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

The blend is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot providing richness and roundness. Vineyards are planted on deep gravel soils overlooking the Gironde, a classic Pauillac terroir that delivers power and precision. The 2010 wine was aged in French oak barrels, allowing seamless integration of fruit, tannin, and structure.

Investment & Collectibility

Widely regarded as one of the estate’s finest releases, the 2010 Pichon Baron has become a cornerstone for collectors seeking elite Bordeaux with proven aging capacity. Its critical acclaim, scarcity in pristine condition, and consistent secondary-market demand reinforce its status as a long-term fine wine holding.

Vintage Insights & Accolades

The 2010 growing season delivered ideal ripeness with exceptional balance, producing wines of power and precision across Pauillac. This bottling is frequently cited among the top Left Bank wines of the decade.

Rocking stuff that continues to show well, the 2010 Château Pichon-Longueville Baron bursts from the glass with ripe, darker currants, spice, leather, and cedar pencil notes. Full-bodied and layered on the palate, it’s incredibly concentrated and powerful, with beautiful overall balance. It's a complete, satisfying, textbook Pauillac that has so much to love. Count yourself lucky if you have bottles in the cellar. Give it a solid decant if drinking any time soon, and it will keep for another 30+ years. Reviewed by: Jeb Dunnuck, Issue date: June 2025.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

(Rating: 97+). Administrator Christian Seeley thinks the 2010 is the greatest Pichon Longueville Baron he has ever made, equaling some of the estate’s colossal wines from vintages such as 1989 and 1990. It was certainly showing well when I stopped by the chateau in January. Opaque purple, with loads of charcoal, licorice, incense and some exotic Asian spices along with abundant cassis liqueur, blackberry and hints of roasted coffee and spring flowers, it is full-bodied and opulent, with relatively high tannins, but they have sweetened up considerably and seem less aggressive than they did from barrel. The oak is clearly pushed to the background by the wine’s wealth of fruit, glycerin and full-bodied texture. This sensational Pichon Longueville Baron needs 5-6 years of cellaring, and should keep 30+ years. Reviewed by: Robert M. Parker, Jr., Issue date: February 2013. Drinking window: 2018 - 2048.

Vinous

The 2010 Pichon-Baron is simply one of the greatest wines produced under Christian Seely's tenure. It has a stunning bouquet with penetrating black fruit, wilted violet and a touch of sea spray, a distinctive marine note verging on shucked oyster shells. The palate is very well balanced with fine grain tannins, layers pf graphite infused black fruit and a very detailed, captivating finish. Brilliant. Tasted from an ex-château bottle at the BI Wines & Spirits 10-Year On tasting. Reviewed by: Neal Martin, Issue date: February 2020. Drinking window: 2023 - 2055.
