This Les Griffons de Pichon Baron is a full-bodied wine with powerful tannins and a fine structure. The nose is complex and fruity, with notes of blackberries and blackcurrants and a hint of caramel. Delicious to drink now, but will get even better in the next 10 years.

Chateau Pichon Baron Longueville
Château Pichon Baron Longueville has a rich history. Until the middle of the 19th century, the Château formed one wine estate with Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande. The reason for the split was that the then owner, Baron Joseph de Pichon Longueville, divides the estate among his 5 children (2 sons and 3 daughters). One of his daughters, Virginie, decides to manage the parts of her two sisters in addition to her own part of the winery. In the end, the children decide to split up the winery, the inherited part of the 2 brothers is separated from the inherited part of the 3 daughters.
The result is two Châteaux, named Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande & Château Pichon-Longueville Baron.
In 1855, both Châteaux are classified as Deuxième Grand Cru Classé.
