Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, the 2015 Pichon-Longueville Baron is enticingly scented of chocolate-covered cherries, crushed red currants and mulberries with touches of baking spices, potpourri and bay leaves plus a hint of fallen leaves. Sumptuously elegant, refreshing and medium-bodied with gorgeous, expressive, perfumed red fruits and very fine, very firm tannins, it has a persistent, perfumed finish. Its remarkable intensity, freshness and very firm frame suggest a long-lived Pichon Baron, which should cellar gracefully for 30+ years. Drink Date 2023-2048. Rating 97/100. –Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Vinous:

The 2016 Pichon Baron is seamless and racy from start to finish. Sensual and super-expressive, with soft contours, silky tannins and exceptional finesse, Pichon Baron is one of the more accessible wines in its peer group today. Plum, mocha, leather, spice and chocolate all build effortlessly. As outstanding as Pichon Baron is, the 2016 gives the impression it is playing things safe. It would be nice to see a little more daring and risk. Drink Date 2026-2041. Rating 96/100. –Antonio Galloni–

Winespectator:

This gushes with dark fig and black currant compote flavors backed by lively sweet tobacco and singed alder edges. Very fleshy in feel, though there's ample grip to keep this red grounded, echoing with tar and humus accents through the finish. A thumper. Best from 2025 through 2040. 13,500 cases made. Rating 96/100. –James Molesworth

Jancis Robinson:

85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot. Aged 18 months in oak barrels (80% new).
Deep crimson hue. Bright and lifted with dark-fruit and graphite notes. Lovely fruit on the palate, so fresh and poised. Big tannic frame but subdued power. Precise, balanced and long. One for the ages. Drink Date 2028-2050. Rating 18+/20. –James Lawther MW–
