Reserve de la Comtesse Pauillac 2010

Reserve de la Comtesse Pauillac 2010


Reserve de la Comtesse is the 2nd label of Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, Second Growth of Pauillac, Bordeaux.

The wine had black fruit such as black cherry and blackcurrant, violet, mint, blackcurrant leaf, cedar.
Tannin was there, but felt very supple.


It was surprising that tannin from Cabernet Sauvignon could be so 

soft. I think I don't know anything about Bordeaux. 

It was good wine.
Could be aged longer? Maybe. But I liked it now.

We had this wine with Beef Sauce Pasta.
JC said the wine tasted very Bordeaux with the food.
What is "very Bordeaux"? 

I still don't know.
