Description

Chateau Pichon Lalande 1986
Pauillac
2bn
Bottle (12)

“The 1986 Pichon-Lalande has long been one of the standout wines of the decade, and served blind, this suggests that it might have the 1982 in its sights. In many ways, it is the twin brother of the Cabernet-driven 1996. It bolts out of the stable doors with intense blackberry and cedar aromas—pure Cabernet—and reveals touches of mint with time. The palate is medium-bodied and thankfully less obdurate than a decade ago; the tannins have mellowed in recent years and secondary notes of sage and graphite are now more expressive. I once described the 1986 as ‘broad-shouldered.’ It remains just that, but it has learned some grace and manners. This is a clear high point for the estate.” (95 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, April 2018)
