Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande
The Pichon Longheville estate goes back to 1688-1689. In 1950, Virginie de Pichon Longueville, Countess de Lalande, and her two sisters inherited three-fifths of the vineyard from their father. This took on the name of Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande. In 1978, May-Eliane de Lencquesaing, daughter of Edouard Miailhe, in turn inherited this beautiful property and devoted herself entirely to coninuing the tradition of quality wine. Just two families have been responsible for maintaining this wine's superb reputation for three centuries. Bordering on Château Latour, Second Growth Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is located in the southern part of Pauillac, near Saint-Julien. They use a much higher percentage of Merlot than average, which is a partial explanation for this wine's outstanding personality, marked by elegance, balance and finesse.
