Château Pichon Baron 2020 (75cl)

The two towers of Château Pichon Baron are among the most recognisable images of Pauillac. The estate originated from property that came to the Pichon family through the marriage of Thérèse de Rauzan and Jacques Pichon de Longueville in 1694. The later division led to the two separate Pichon châteaux. Baron Raoul had the present buildings erected in 1851, and in 1855 the estate was recognised as a second growth. Since 1987 Pichon Baron has belonged to AXA Millésimes, which made a thorough renewal of the vineyard and winemaking possible. The main parcels lie on old gravel ridges by the Gironde, in the south of Pauillac.
