title: Château Pichon Longueville 2012 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron  (Pauillac)
description: The equivalent of an alternative second wine from Château Pichon Baron (with Les Tourelles), Les Griffons is named after the statues of griffins that are in the chateau's courtyard. This is a structured wine, firmly tannic while already showing plenty of black currant fruitiness. Equal measures of Merlot and Cabernet balance the wine and give depth of flavor. It will develop soon and will be drinkable from 2017.
variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend
designation: Les Griffons de Pichon Baron
