Black cherry, plum, chocolate, grilled herbs, licorice, new leather and spice all flesh out in a succulent Pauillac that shows the racier personality of the year. In the glass, Pichon is dark, racy and sumptuous as it so often is, with terrific density and explosive energy. Today, I see less of the aromatic brilliance the wine showed en primeur; perhaps that will come with time.

Then a second assessment is made and the final blend is decided.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CaskCartel.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42786323890314,"sku":"","price":13630.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/41_9f6b8cee-90b2-4bf2-a219-6e56ea5119f1.png?v=1676622327","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/es-au\/products\/2017-pichon-baron-pauillac-medoc-18l","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
