Description

1995 Chateau Pichon-Longueville Baron
Over the space of a few years, the grand vin of Pichon Longueville Baron has established itself as one of the best crus of Pauillac. Full and concentrated, it has unique, fine-grained tannins which make it absolutely delicious. Indeed, like the best wines of the appellation, it is extremely effective at marrying contrasts: power and finesse.

93 points James Suckling
This is surprisingly delicate and fine now with currant and spice character and hints of nuts. It is full bodied with refined texture and a beautiful finish. Inner quote mark (6/2016)

91 points Vinous
The 1995 Pichon-Baron is a wine that tasted extremely well several years ago, but I wonder how well it is continuing to evolve. The bouquet feels a little smudged, scents of iodine and cassis merging with blackberry and pencil lead; it is a little meandering and missing a sense of focus. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, crisp acidity and good density, but it doesn’t possess the clarity and detail of more recent vintages. Solid, but lacks flair. Tasted at the Pichon-Baron vertical at the château. (NM) (1/2019)
