While the estate sits in \u003cstrong\u003ePauillac\u003c\/strong\u003e—a region known for muscle and power—Pichon Comtesse has always been celebrated for its \"feminine\" elegance, sensuality, and silky texture. The \"Réserve,\" created in 1973, allows wine lovers to access this prestigious terroir without waiting decades for the wine to mature. The 2019 vintage is widely regarded as a modern classic in Bordeaux; it marries the solar intensity of the summer with a remarkable energy and freshness, resulting in a wine that is both dense and incredibly graceful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"3,0,0\"\u003eTerroir:\u003c\/b\u003e Located on the border of the Saint-Julien appellation, the vineyard features deep Garonne gravel over a clay subsoil.

Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve precision. The wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels (using about 40% new wood), which is shorter and with less new oak than the first wine to favor fruit purity and earlier drinkability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PEOPLE OF WINE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51556731257114,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0939\/4002\/3578\/files\/5.png?v=1768448670","url":"https:\/\/peopleofwine.sg\/products\/reserve-de-la-comtesse-pichon-comtesse-pauillac-2019","provider":"PEOPLE OF WINE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
