The Reserve de la Comtesse is the second wine of the famous second classed growth Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande. This wine produced in the commune of Pauillac in the Haut-Médoc sub-region of Bordeaux displays some of the elevated quality of the first wine but at a far more affordable price. It is made from 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 46% Merlot with the remaining 3% consisting of Petit Verdot.
"Sweet mulberry, black cherry, licorice, and forest floor notes dominate this medium-bodied, fleshy, soft wine."
according to Robert Parker who recommends keeping this wine for up to 10 years or so. The Reserve de la Comtesse is an elegant, aromatic and perfumed wine which some tasters have described as having cedar and violet notes on the nose.
