【Feature】Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande

Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande has an outstanding go-hectare terroir ideally located in Pauillac on the banks of the Gironde Estuary.

 

Despite its long, rich history, only four families have owned the emblematic Medoc estate, with the Louis Roederer Champagne House injecting an ambitious, innovative dynamism in 2007.

 

From the vineyard’s gradual conversion towards biodynamic methods to the installation of state-of-the-art winemaking facilities, every effort has been made to help the Pichon Comtesse terroir produce well-balanced, classy, and elegant Pauillac wines.
