One of Pauillac's most celebrated Second Growths, Château Pichon-Longueville Baron sits on deep gravels next door to Château Latour. The 2015 vintage in Pauillac is widely regarded as outstanding, producing classic, age-worthy wines of great purity and structure.

Terroir: 73 hectares of deep Quaternary gravels on the gravel plateau of Pauillac. The estate has been owned by AXA Millésimes since 1987.
Vinification & ageing: Hand-harvested grapes are vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel and concrete tanks, then aged around 18 months in French oak barrels with a high proportion of new oak.
COLOUR: Deep ruby with purple highlights.
NOSE: Profound bouquet of blackcurrant, dark plum, graphite, cedar and a hint of tobacco and dark chocolate.
PALATE: Full-bodied, structured and refined, with polished tannins and a long, layered finish.
