    Lisa Perrotti-Brown,

    A blend of 50% Merlot, 42% Cabernet Franc, and 8% Petit Verdot, the 2020 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron is deep garnet-purple in color. It charges out with intense notes of juicy blackberries, blackcurrant pastilles, and cracked black pepper, leading to suggestions of wood smoke, black olives, and truffles. The medium-bodied palate is lively, with a remarkably fine-grained texture, finishing with compelling finesse.

    The 2020 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron contains the Petit Verdot that was previously blended with the Les Tourelles. This has an intense nose with graphite and chalk-tinged black fruit, touches of black olive compote emerging with time, all with wonderful delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with quite firm and saturated tannins, very pure, precise and poised. Gentle grip with a lively, citrus-fresh finish, and hints of blue fruit on the aftertaste.
