Note di degustazione
The 2013 Pichon Baron has a tight-knit nose, light black fruit, leather and loamy scents, becoming more floral with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, quite peppery, more like Szechuan pepper insofar that it leaves a pleasant tingle on the tongue. Short though. Drink now and over the next four to six years. Tasted at Bordeaux Index's 10-Year On tasting.

82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot. Aged 18 months in oak barrels (70% new) . In the context of this vertical tasting (2000–2020) this is clearly the weak link but sound all the same. Lighter weight and frame but juicy and balanced. Leafy notes but limited complexity. Dry finish. Best drunk while the fruit holds. (JL)
Crimson with blackish notes. Much deeper colour than Pichon Lalande. Serious wine but without much charm. A dry finish and rather hollow on the mid palate. Decent persistence though. (JR)
Pichon Baron delivers a good quality Pauillac, with architecture to the tannins and a seam of dark fruits. It has over-performed the vintage in general, although it remains a wine to enjoy over the next five to ten years. 20hl/h, 70% new oak.
