2010 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande – Pauillac with Poise and Power

The 2010 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande stands among the most accomplished expressions of Pauillac in the modern era. Renowned for its refined balance of structure and sensuality, the estate delivers a wine that combines classical Left Bank authority with remarkable finesse, shaped by one of Bordeaux’s greatest vintages.

Tasting Notes

Deep and layered, the wine opens with aromas of blackcurrant, graphite, cedar, and subtle floral tones. The palate is expansive yet controlled, revealing concentrated dark fruit, polished tannins, and a precise mineral core. A long, composed finish underscores the wine’s depth and harmony, pointing to decades of graceful evolution ahead.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

The blend is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Fruit is sourced from deep gravel soils near the Gironde, contributing power and aromatic clarity. The 2010 vintage benefited from ideal ripening conditions, and the wine was aged in French oak barrels to refine texture and integrate structure.

Investment & Collectibility

Widely regarded as one of the estate’s benchmark releases, the 2010 Comtesse de Lalande has shown consistent strength in the secondary market. Its critical acclaim, longevity, and prestige classification secure its position as a cornerstone wine for serious Bordeaux collectors.

Vintage Insights & Accolades

The 2010 growing season delivered exceptional concentration balanced by freshness, producing wines of purity and power across Pauillac. This bottling is frequently cited for its precision and aging potential.

Gorgeous as well and on another level, the 2010 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse De Lalande is darker-hued with powerful aromatics of blackcurrants, leafy herbs, tobacco leaf, and chocolate. Full-bodied and round, it offers a lush, layered, and sexy profile on the palate, with a seamless mouthfeel, fine-grained tannins, and fabulous length. Based on 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, and the balance Petit Verdot, this seems to have turned the corner and is now showing its full potential. It has another 30-40 years of prime drinking ahead of it. Reviewed by Jeb Dunnuck, Issue date: June 2025, Drinking window: Drink Date: 2025 - 2065.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande gives up notes of warm cassis, blueberry pie and kirsch with wafts of cedar chest, pencil lead, charcoal and charcuterie plus a hint of wild thyme. Medium to full-bodied, the savory-inspired palate possesses a fair bit of chew with a lively backbone and firm finish.

Vinous

(Rating: 98+). An eternal wine, the 2010 Pichon Lalande is a total showstopper. The first impression is one of explosive power, but time in the glass brings out the wine’s more delicate, floral side. Violet, graphite, crème de cassis, licorice and menthol overtones recall the 1996, but the tannins here are much softer, sweeter and more polished. In two recent tastings, the 2010 has been positively stellar. The alternation of hot days and cool nights led to a late harvest. The Cabernet Sauvignon harvest did not start until October 7; by that date in 2009 all the fruit was in. Readers who can still find the 2010 should not hesitate, as it is a modern-day classic. That’s all there is to it. Reviewed by Antonio Galloni, Issue date: June 2017. Drinking window: Drink Date: 2025 - 2060.
