Robert Parker
Pichon Lalande has rarely been a star performer in tastings of older wines, adding evidence to those who claim the greatest wines made at the property are those being produced today. This is a fine vintage. The wine is gloriously decadent. However, it quickly fell apart in the glass, suggesting that it has begun to decline. Jan 1998, www.robertparker.com
About the producer

Pichon Comtesse
Ch. Pichon Comtesse is one of the stars of Pauillac, and one of the original "Super Seconds" in Bordeaux. Classed as a Deuxième Cru Classé in the 1855 Bordeaux classification, it is widely recognised that Pichon Comtesse can not only match First Growths, but occasionally outperform them.
