Pichon-Longuevilles historie kan spores helt tilbage til 1688. Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande til blev, da den store Pichon-Longueville ejendom blev delt i 1850, da Virginie de Pichon-Longueville arvede 3/5 af ejendommen. I 1925 blev slottet solgt til Edourd Miailhe og hans bror. Edourd Miailhes datter May-Éliane de Lencquesaing overtog ejendommen i 1978. Hun renoverede slottet i 1980´erne, og der blev opført en helt ny kælder.
I 2007 købte champagnehuset Louis Roederer dette fantastiske slot og ansatte Sylvie Cazes som direktør. Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande er en af Pauillacs mest feminine og bløde vine, hvilket kan skyldes den høje andel af Merlot.
I dag har Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande rigtig mange faste fans, der køber vinen for at lægge den i kælderen, men det er også én af de vine, som indkøbes af mere spekulative årsager.

Delightful perfumed scents, floral and elegant, lifted. Filigree tannins give weight but melt into the sides of the mouth. Lovely fruit purity – cherry, strawberry, blueberry with hints of saltiness beneath. Excellent balance and structure, quite fleshy, with intensity carried by acidity and fine tannins. Another great vintage here, with a long life ahead.
A racy and focused red with black currant, blackberry and black cherry aromas and flavors. Hints of licorice Medium to full-bodied with tight and solid tannins that are polished and beautiful. Black currant, chocolate and walnut flavors, with a hint of spices at the end. Decanted, it shows such class and beauty. Stunning is the word. So refined and graceful with silky tannin backbone. From organic and biodynamically grown grapes. 80% cabernet sauvignon, 17% merlot and 3% cabernet franc. Best after 2029.
The 2023 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is pure class. Vertical, deep and explosive, the 2023 is one of the stars of the vintage. Readers will find a vertical, soaring Pichon Comtesse. The 2023 is one of the most refined wines I can remember tasting here in many years. Lavender, dried herbs, menthol, licorice and mocha are some of the notes that build with some time in the glass. The 2023 is not an especially showy Pichon Comtesse, but rather a wine that needs time to blossom.
