Chateau Pichon-Longueville au Baron de Pichon-Longueville, Pauillac, France 2016 Carso While zesty cantaloupe and dryIrony and smoky intensity on the very youthful nose. Really rich and tannic, but as it flows over your palate it becomes more and more suave and complex. This is a concentrated, long term wine that demands some patience but should richly reward it. 95 Pts James Suckling
