ROBERT PARKER “Tasted at the Fine Wine Experience’s Pichon-Lalande vertical in London. This is slightly deeper in colour than the ’99 Pichon Lalande. The nose has very good lift with notes of blackberry, pomegranate, touches of liquorices and a drop of hoi sin. Good definition but very backward. The palate is medium-bodied, very well balanced with good vibrancy and acidity. Lively and vivacious with cedar-tinged black fruits, more floral and feminine towards the finish. It is amazing how well the Petit Verdot has integrated into the fabric of the wine, certainly less green than it showed in its youth, the vestiges of which simply lend it freshness and vigour. Drink 2011-2025. Tasted December 2008.”

Description Overview
From the legendary vineyards of Pauillac, the 2001 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande represents an exceptional Bordeaux vintage, renowned for its rarity and enduring prestige. Harvested during a year celebrated for near-perfect conditions, this wine embodies over two centuries of heritage, offering both connoisseurs and collectors an exclusive opportunity to acquire a truly investment-grade estate bottle. Its limited availability in the current market amplifies its appeal as a distinguished asset within elite wine collections worldwide.
Key Features & Benefits
Crafted with meticulous care, this 2001 vintage was produced using traditional Bordeaux methods combined with modern precision, resulting in a complex, well-balanced wine. The vineyard’s terroir, characterized by deep gravel soils and optimal Pauillac microclimates, contributes to its rich concentration and distinctive minerality.
Sourced from hand-selected grapes dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and complemented by Merlot and Petit Verdot, it assures exceptional aging potential and nuanced flavor development. For collectors, its pedigree and bottling integrity translate into enduring value retention and a prestigious addition to any cellar.


Heritage & Collectibility
Founded in 1855 and consistently hailed as a Deuxième Cru Classé, Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is synonymous with Bordeaux excellence and aristocratic tradition. The 2001 edition reflects a relatively limited production run, making it increasingly scarce as demand from discerning buyers escalates.
Positioned among the most sought-after Pauillac wines, its legacy and market appreciation underscore its robust investment potential, appealing strongly to both seasoned collectors and luxury wine investors seeking portfolio diversification.
Sensory Profile & Usage
This vintage delights with a complex bouquet of blackcurrant, cedar, and graphite aromas enhanced by subtle floral and spice notes. On the palate, expect a full-bodied experience marked by elegant tannins and a long, refined finish showcasing hints of dark chocolate and tobacco leaf.
Experts recommend decanting for 1-2 hours to maximize aromatic expression. Ideal storage remains in a controlled, cool environment with consistent humidity. For the ultimate gastronomic pairing, serve alongside prime rib, game meats, or aged cheeses to elevate any exceptional dining occasion.
