Pichon Longueville Baron - 2010 (750ml) Oregon and then ‘finished’ in casksDeep garnet in color, the 2010 Pichon Longueville Baron delivers expressive scents of baked black cherries, plum preserves and crme de cassis with hints of cedar chest and bouquet garni. Medium to full bodied, the palate has a firm backbone of grainy tannins and lovely freshness with bags of energetic black fruits and a long, wonderfully pure finish. 96 points The Wine Advocate
