Chateau Pichon Baron 2017 is a Pauillac blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon and 21% Merlot. Blackcurrant, blackberry and spice aromas lead to an elegant, focused palate with compact tannins, freshness and refined structure. Eighteen months in French oak contributes depth while preserving the wine's precise, persistent character.
Food Pairing: Pairs best with roasted lamb shoulder, grilled ribeye, braised beef cheeks, or aged Comte cheese.
95 Points - James Suckling
The currants, blackberries and spices are very pretty here on the nose. The palate is medium-to full-bodied with round, compact tannins and a fresh, linear finish. Cool and racy. Strong and focused. Drink after 2023.
95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Composed of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon and 21% Merlot aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 80% new, the deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Pichon-Longueville Baron slips sensuously out of the glass with provocative cherry preserves, baked raspberries and fresh blackcurrants scents, leading to nuances of red roses, charcoal, tilled soil and cardamom plus a waft of forest floor. Medium-bodied, the palate is elegant, refreshing and refined, with a compelling line of soft, grainy tannins and lots of perfumed accents, finishing fragrant.
95 Points - Wine Spectator
Well-built, featuring the pure, fresh core of currant and blackberry fruit that is the vintage's hallmark, all backed by well-integrated tobacco, cast iron and roasted apple wood notes. Grippy, but with enough energy to keep bringing you back rather than tiring you out. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2024 through 2040. 13,916 cases made.
