    (Château Pichon-Longueville Baron) 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc. Dark, but slightly lighter in color than the 2005. Lifted, fruit-driven, fresh cassis aromas. Midweight, fresh, and balanced, with a mineral backbone. This elegant wine has lovely, sweet fruit, without the power of the 2005. Enormously appealing. Drink in six to 15 years.

    (Château Pichon-Longueville Baron) Classic second-growth Pauillac from an undervalued vintage. About 75% high-end Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in mostly new French oak. Still a little tight, but already complex. A great choice for cellaring that will only increase in value. Hot Picks

    (CHATEAU PICHON BARON) #2; COLOR-dark; NOSE-beautiful; red & black fruits (dark cherries, cassis, black blueberries & blackberries); very dark; mocha/chocolate; subtle creaminess; TASTE-Delicious; huge attack of flavor; intense "all fruit" jam components, but not like fruit bombs that are driven by sugar; really rounded edges are vegetal while the fruit is so intense; the silkiness and polish is exceptional; A "DoubleBubble" (big boy that can last for 15 years easy, but still approachable now); exceptionally good; destroys 90% of Napa Cabs at this price point; RP-93; GV-93
