2024 Réserve de Pichon Comtesse

The 2024 Réserve de la Comtesse is a very racy, sexy wine. Crushed flowers, mint, lavender, new leather, mocha and spice all grace this exquisite, wonderfully nuanced Réserve. All the elements are so well balanced. Silky tannins add to the wine's total feeling of finesse, but the aromatics are just as inviting. Tasted three times.

A lighter vintage but juicy and refined, showing lots of crunch and freshness. Healthy tannins are firm and lightly chewy with medium body and an al dente finish. 72% cabernet sauvignon, 24% merlot and 4% cabernet franc.

A blend of 72% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc, the 2024 Pichon Comtesse Reserve is deep purple-hued and reveals a charming, forward style in its darker cherry, currants, smoky tobacco, and gravelly earth aromatics. It's medium-bodied and has a supple yet nicely textured, balanced mouthfeel. It's a solid second wine that will offer plenty of pleasure right out of the gate. The 2024 hit 12.7% alcohol, 3.7 pH, and 65 IPT. (05/2025)

Deep garnet-purple colored. Pops from the glass with cheery scents of fresh blackberries, mulberries, and black currants, leading to hints of lavender oil, pencil lead, and damp soil. The light-bodied palate is refreshing and pure with lightly chewy tannins and a savory finish. (05/2025)
