The vineyard of Pichon Longueville Baron extends over Garonne gravel to the south of the appellation on the high plateau which is a transition between the commune of Pauillac and that of Saint-Julien. Planted with vines since the end of the 17th century, it achieved almost instant renown.

Dividing the property between his five children, au Baron being left to his two sons, Lalande Comtesse to his three daughters, the estates have remained seperate ever since.

For a period Jean-Michel Cazes of Lynch Bages oversaw the property and instigated much replanting and renovation.

These bottles were still in their original case, labels are very good to excellent with fill levels in the high shoulder.
