RESERVE PICHON COMTESSE 2021
The 2021 Réserve de la Comtesse is a seriously great wine in its peer group. Or any peer group. Rich and layered, with no hard edges and compelling balance, the 2021 opens beautifully in the glass. Savory accents run through a core of black cherry and plum fruit, with hints of gravel, spice and leather that develop later.
Tasting notes
The complex nose evokes raspberry and wild strawberry, but also fresher notes of lilac and citrus, rosemary and liquorice. On the palate, we find the pure beauty of raspberry and cherry, balanced with a light, precise tannic structure that brings definition and an elegant finish.
Food pairing and serving temperature
To taste with a nice rib of beef grillet with vine branches or rack of lamb
