Owner's words
Losing oneself in the pleasure of complex aromas... Notes of blackberry and blackcurrant predominate, giving way to earthy violet aromas, followed by hints of brown tobacco and black tea leaves, typical of the Pauillac terroir. What a spellbinding and overwhelming experience! Here we are immersed in a perfumer’s workshop where top notes meet middle notes...The palate is lively, but also gentle and drawn-out. The long-lasting tannins, as soft as cashmere, appear to go on forever, oozing confidence and assertiveness as they navigate between Pauillac nobility and the elegant sensuality quintessential to Pichon Comtesse.
