98 Points — Neal Martin, Vinous. 98 Points — Jeb Dunnuck. And one reviewer calls it outright the best vintage of Pichon Comtesse ever produced. This is Pauillac at its most seductive.

The 2022 bursts from the glass with aromas of cassis and blackberries mingled with licorice, violets, and pencil shavings. Full-bodied, layered, and enveloping, it's suave, seamless, and complete — faultless precision, pristine tannin integration, and a long, expansive finish. 

Based on 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, and the balance Cabernet Franc, aged 19 months in two-thirds new oak, this is a magical, heavenly wine with an incredibly floral character, a huge core of dark currant fruit, ripe and velvety tannins, and a thrilling finish — a quintessential Comtesse that delivers both forward elegance and classic Pauillac depth. Give it 5–7 years and enjoy over the following 40+. 

Starting with the 2016 vintage, the wines from Pichon Lalande have been remarkable — and what's being produced today is arguably the finest in the history of the estate.  The 2022 is the crown jewel.

" The 2022 Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande has turned out even better in bottle than I anticipated, bursting from the glass with aromas of cassis and blackberries mingled with scents of licorice, violets and pencil shavings. Full-bodied, layered and enveloping, it's suave, seamless and complete, with faultless precision, pristine integration of tannin, controlled sweetness and a long, expansive finish. The 2022 manages to unite the sensuality that's the estate's calling card and the ripeness of the vintage on the one hand, with a sense of Pauillac classicism on the other, threading the needle to deliver one of the finest wines of the vintage and a benchmark Pichon Comtesse. It's a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc that spent 18 months in barriques (three months more than was formerly the case), two-thirds of which were new. As I wrote en primeur, there's more than a hint of the 1982 about this wine, and like the 1982, the 2022 will offer an exceptionally wide drinking window."
