Lot #45. Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande 1978

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 94 AG.
"A host of Cabernet Sauvignon-infused aromas make a strong opening statement in the 1978 Pichon Lalande. There is certainly no shortage of power or character. If anything, the 1978 is perhaps a bit lacking in mid-palate depth, which gives it an element of austerity. Aside from that small critique, the 1978 is deeply expressive and gorgeous." Vinous, Oct 2017
Notes: Base neck, lightly scuffed, very lightly scuffed label.
