Château Pichon Baron Pauillac 1987 is a mature Second Growth Bordeaux that highlights the enduring elegance and classic structure of this renowned Pauillac estate. Produced from the estate's oldest vines, the 1987 vintage reveals evolved aromas of blackcurrant, red berries, cedar, tobacco, graphite, dried herbs, vanilla, and gentle spice. With over three decades of bottle age, the palate is refined and harmonious, offering softened tannins, savoury complexity, and a long, balanced finish. While lighter than the estate's greatest vintages, it remains a rewarding choice for collectors seeking a fully mature Bordeaux with authentic Pauillac character.

Elegant and well balanced, with ripe currant, bell pepper, spice and vanilla notes. Complex and well proportioned, with a touch of tobacco, this has more flavor than most from this vintage. It needs time for tannins to mellow. Drink now to 1996.

Vivino | Vivino 4.4

A wine of great personality with fresh red-fruit and blackberry scents. It is quick to express itself on the palate, rolling out its assertive, powerful character and rich flesh. The finish is very long-lasting, with dense, precise tannins. A finely-balanced wine of substance with firm structure and body.
