Producer

Producer

The Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande vineyard stretches across clay-limestone and gravelly soils, characteristic of the Pauillac region. This unique terroir, influenced by the oceanic climate, promotes optimal grape ripening. The vines, averaging 30 years old, benefit from ideal sun exposure, allowing them to develop rich and complex aromas. The sustainable farming practices implemented on the estate guarantee the health of the vineyard and the quality of the harvested grapes.

Owner and history

Currently, Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande belongs to the Rouzaud family, who also own the prestigious Champagne House Louis Roederer. Under their management, the estate continues its pursuit of excellence, combining traditional expertise with sustainable innovations. The owners are committed to preserving the winemaking heritage while adapting practices to contemporary environmental challenges, thus guaranteeing the long-term viability of the terroir and the quality of the wines produced.

Vinification and aging

The 2019 Réserve de la Comtesse is crafted with meticulous care, respecting the estate's traditions. The carefully selected grapes are vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve their freshness and fruitiness. Malolactic fermentation is carried out to add roundness and suppleness to the wine. The wine is then aged in oak barrels, some of which are new, to enrich it with subtle woody notes without masking its typicity. This aging process, lasting several months, allows the wine's full complexity and elegance to shine through.
