Château Pichon Baron 2006

The 2006 vintage of Château Pichon Baron is a classic Pauillac. Powerful, poised, and built to age gracefully, this has all the hallmarks of a great Left Bank Cabernet Sauvignon. Château Pichon Baron, officially known as Château Pichon Longueville Baron, is one of Pauillac’s great Second Growths, classified in 1855. Established in the late 17th century, it sits just across the road from its famous neighbour Pichon Lalande. Under the ownership of AXA Millésimes since 1987 and the meticulous direction of Christian Seely, Pichon Baron has reasserted itself as one of the Médoc’s top estates, producing wines that combine intensity, precision, and remarkable ageing potential.

Côte De Nuits-Villages, Domaine Jean Tardy et Fils, (Magnum) 2021

Blink and you’d literally miss Domaine Jean Tardy, an envelope-sized sign by a driveway off the RN74 just outside Vosne Romanée the only indication that you are in the right place. Unprepossessing as this domaine looks, the wines continue to show plenty of personality and Guillaume does a particularly impressive line in vieilles vignes lieu dits (old vine, single vineyards), which allow him to “ avoid making a bad marriage between the wrong parcels ”. The results are always seductive and digestible and compete with premier crus for quality and complexity. Guillaume's Côte de Nuits-Villages 2021 is designed for relatively early consumption but has the potential to develop further complexity with a few years of aging. Proper cellaring will enhance its evolution and longevity.
