Tasting with Andreas Larsson MS, 95 Pichon Comtesse Magnum


Master Sommelier Andreas Larsson visited Oslo and the Norwegian Sommelier Association for a tasting on legendary Bordeaux against legendary California wines. I say California since Ridge Montebello was amongst the Napa Valley wines. First wine out was:

1995 Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande:
(Magnum, decanted about three hours) Nright ruby, garnet rim. Fruit-driven, elegant and seductive. Leather, anise, cassis, some cherries and white chocolate. Simply gorgeous nose. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, mouthwatering palate, savory, gorgeous balance, layered, flirting and long. 94
