Aging, and specifically, the barrel regime of 18 months in oak (60% new) has left the 2016 with a heavy toast/torrefaction quality that at present overpowers the dark fruit and Cabernet aromatics the wine showed from barrel. Drinking Window 2027 - 2050.ĩ1 Points Vinous - The 2016 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron is quite powerful and dense. 18 months in 60% new oak reinforces the silky tannins. This is gorgeous, with a sense of restraint behind the deep, plump fruit. Beautiful, rich dark purple in color from a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon and 48% Merlot, a more classic interpretation of a Médoc second wine than Les Tourelles. 7,667 cases made.ĩ1 Points Decanter - This is closer to the signature of the grand vin than that of the Tourelles de Longueville as it comes from soil with a higher gravel content. There's a light tug of earth through the gently toasty finish, but this is pretty much all fruit and is ready to go. It’s also deeply colored, offers classic Pauillac aromatics, and possesses a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, backward vibe that’s going to benefit from 4-5 years of bottle age.ĩ1 Points Wine Spectator - This is fleshy and caressing in feel, letting warm plum sauce and cassis notes roll along, lined with pretty violet and anise accents. The 2016 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron is slightly more Cabernet Sauvignon-based and sees 60% new French oak. Try from 2022.ĩ3 Points Jeb Dunnuck - There are two second wines from this estate.

The palate is fresh and gently muscular tannins serve this wine well. 93 Points James Suckling - Attractive, modern style with assorted, ripe summer berries, layered with upbeat, toasty oak.
