Château Pichon-Baron, Ch. Pichon Baron 2002, DMagnum OHK

89 / 100 Robert Parker
This is an elegant, deep ruby-colored wine with notes of sweet cassis, cedar wood, and tobacco with a hint of chocolate in the background. It is a layered, moderately weighty wine with pretty, even understated fruit flavors, excellent concentration, and a long finish with relatively ripe tannin.

Dense aromas of licorice, tobacco, cedar and currants. Subtle yet complex. Full-bodied, with silky tannins and a rich, long finish. Very pretty. One of the best from Pauillac this year, and clearly better than 2001. One of the surprises of the vintage. Best after 2008. 20,000 cases made.

16.5 / 20 Jancis Robinson
Very dark crimson. Fragrant. Sweet and round and more lifted than most, even if the guy ropes resolutely refuse to be cut. Attractive freshness on the finish and more ambitious than most.
