Château Pichon Longueville Baron Pauillac 2014 is one of the standout wines of the 2014 Bordeaux vintage and a benchmark expression of Pauillac. Classified as a Second Growth in the historic 1855 Classification, Pichon Baron is widely regarded as one of Bordeaux's legendary "Super Seconds," producing wines that often rival First Growth quality.
The 2014 vintage is built around an impressive blend of 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot, sourced from the estate's finest gravelly vineyard parcels. Following an exceptional late-season ripening period, the wine achieved remarkable balance, concentration, and freshness. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 80% of which were new, the result is a wine of power, precision, and exceptional ageing potential.
Critics consistently regard the 2014 Pichon Baron as one of the finest wines of the vintage, praised for its classic Pauillac character, combining cassis-driven fruit, graphite minerality, refined tannins, and remarkable longevity.
