Pichon Lalande Vintage:2004 The oak portion is 60%

The oak portion is 60% new

and certainly one of the finest of the white Chateauneuf du Papes

Saturated ruby

the wine holds its own as one of the most beautiful in the entire appellation and one of the best in the somewhat lackluster vintage

-- Stephen Tanzer

Pichon Lalande Vintage:2004 The oak portion is 60%As it always is, the 2012 Pichon Lalande is a wine of pure and total seduction. The 2012 is neither the biggest nor most complex Pichon Lalande, but it is among the most pleasurable wine in this tasting, especially for near and medium term drinking. Silky and medium in body, with lovely brightness, the 2012 has so much to offer. Antonio Galloni
