The 2020 vintage in the reviews :
La Revue du Vin de France (2024 Guide) : 99/100 « Pure class! This 2020 unfurls a subtle, silky, meticulous texture, with vibrant berry notes and an absolute delicacy in its mouthfeel. Velvety tannins bring supreme refinement to the finish. »
Vinous (Neal Martin - November 2024) : 99/100 and #3 of the Top 100 wines of 2024 « The 2020 Pichon Lalande flirts with perfection. Nicolas Glumineau oversaw a sensational Pauillac that not only challenges the First Growth, but perhaps even surpasses them. A benchmark wine for this historic estate »
