February 7, 2024 - This vine is a great favorite of mine, but I was concerned over two items. One, when I bought it In the early 1970s, 1967 was not included to be a great year for Bordeaux, and. two, the Level of the wine In the bottle was down maybe 3/4 of an inch. The cork was quite wet, but intact.
Susannah loved it immediately. I was a bit concerned that the alcohol contact was too low, but the wine held up well over a one-hour meal. It never quite opened up, which was not unexpected, given the age.
I have more in the cellar, So I must make a point of opening another full bottle for a balanced perspective -

April 15, 2017 - A success in a difficult vintage, the wine was more about its secondary aromatics, than the fading, palate. If you have a bottle, pop a cork before more of the fruit is replaced by acidity.

November 10, 2015 - The oldest bottle in this impressive line up of Pichon Baron spanning over 5 decades. Unfortunately the least pleasant wine. Brown in colour, heavily maderised on the nose, maggi spice, biting acidity. Just slightly better on the palate but still quite nasty and undrinkable.
