Pichon Lalande's second wine, the 2011 Reserve de la Comtesse offers juicy, cherry, red and black currant notes as well as a medium-bodied, elegant, finesse style. It is already drinking well and should continue to evolve nicely for another decade.
Lightly rugged along the edges, this sports a core of crushed plum and currant fruit, lined with tobacco and briar notes. Accessible now despite the chewy feel, which should soften soon enough.
