The Wine Advocate

"The 2018 Pichon-Longueville Baron is made up of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot. The Merlot was harvested September 24-25, and the Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested October 3-10. The wine is to be aged 18 months in barriques, 80% new and 20% one year old, and production represents 50% of the harvest this year. Very deep purple-black colored, it begins a little coy, rolling slowly and languidly out of the glass with notions of baked raspberries, blueberry coulis, crème de cassis and incense plus nuances of lilacs, truffles, damp soil and garrigue with wafts of lavender and wild sage. Full-bodied, voluptuous and oh-so-seductive, the palate reveals layer upon layer of savory, earthy and black fruit preserves, framed by wonderfully ripe, velvety tannins and lovely freshness, finishing very long and perfumed. Beautiful."

Decanter Magazine

"Straight from the nose you feel the wave of power with the wine uncurling through the palate, starting with tight notes of cassis then gently softening into sweeter brambled hedgerow fruits alongside a ton of ink and pencil lead. The tannins are present but seductive, and as is often the case this year, they´re concentrated without being remote. It’s less monolithic than the 2010 with some of the seduction of 2009 at this property but with higher levels of extraction. The harvest took place between 24 September and 11 October. Again, we see here a Pauillac with the highest alcohol ever but it carries it extremely well. There was one week less of maceration than normal, so 21 days instead of 28, which will have helped control extractions. 86IPT."

"78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 18 months in oak, 80% new. Barrel sample.
Colour of elderberry juice. Intensely pure Cabernet nose, so intense it is quite introvert, especially compared with the Tourelles, but there is just a hint of fresh and creamy blackcurrant. A dry beauty on the palate. Not a great deal of acidity but finishes clean and fresh with these slub-silk tannins. There's texture and depth but it's still silky. Freshness of fruit compensating for moderate acidity."

Jeff Leve

"The color is pure purple and on the nose the level of fruit is enormous. Blackberry, boysenberry, dark cherry, smoke, espresso, black currant and cigar wrappers are the first thing you´ll notice. Powerful yet regal, rich, concentrated and multi-layered, the fruit comes at you with non-stop waves of flavor. But more importantly, the fruit is fresh, pure and quite dense. Although quite tannic, the ripe berries coat your palate, teeth and gums and stay with you. The tannins do not intrude. There is no touch of heat, jam or overripe sensations even though the wine reached 14.1% alcohol. This stunner will age and develop into one of the great vintages for Pichon Baron. To enjoy this at its best, you´ll need to have some patience, at least 10-12 years are needed before popping a cork. The wine will age and evolve for 3-4 decades after that. The wine was made from blending 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot. The Grand Vin was made from 50% of the harvest with the picking taking place September 24-25 for the Merlot and October 3-10 for the Cabernet Sauvignon."

Jean-Marc Quarin

"Ma meilleure note donnée à ce cru en primeur à égalité avec le 2016.
Couleur rouge, sombre, intense et belle. Nez intense, fin, fruité, puissant, profond et crémeux. Ample dès l'attaque et très pulpeux au développement, riche en milieu de bouche, puissant, aromatique, le vin se montre savoureux et gras, avec beaucoup de goût et une sensation veloutée étonnante. Grande saveur d'encre et de fruits noirs dans la persistance. C'est superbe. A l'instar du 2016, sa note pourrait monter en cours d'élevage. Très recommandé. Assemblage : 78 % cabernet sauvignon, 22 % merlot. Degré d'alcool : 14°1 (moyenne plus. A titre d'exemple, le 2016 faisait 13°3) - pH : 3,8 (moyenne plus) - IPT : 86 (moyenne plus). Rendement : 35 hl/ha."

James Suckling

"Deep and dark young wine that takes you down, deep down to its center palate of blackberries and blueberries, firm and very silky tannins and a vivid finish. Wonderful palate and depth in this with such class and finesse. So many layers of polished, fine tannins. Great wine."

Roger Voss

"Offering big, powerful tannins, this wine shows an amazing density of immense black fruits. It has a rich structure that’s allied with great acidity and a strongly spicy character. There is a wonderful juiciness at the end that gives it an impressive lift."

Jeb Dunnuck

"Representing just 50% of the production and a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot aging in 80% new French oak, the 2018 Pichon-Longueville Baron reveals a deep, saturated purple color as well as a decadent bouquet of crème de cassis, high class tobacco, crushed violets, and freshly sharpened cedar pencils, which is about as Pauillac as you can get. Full-bodied, incredibly opulent, with moderate acidity and silky tannins on the palate, it still shows beautiful purity, freshness, and elegance, with the tannins giving focus and length on the finish. It´s a brilliant, brilliant wine that´s in the same class as the 1990, 2000, 2005, 2009, and 2010."

Wine Spectator

"Warm, dense and fleshy in feel, featuring cassis, plum and cherry compote flavors infused with tobacco and worn cedar details. Seriously long, with a well-buried iron note, though the purity of the fruit is the dominating feature overall. This cuts a pretty broad swath as it moves along. A big wine."

VINOUS

"Pichon Baron is exceptional in 2018. Pliant, silky and super-finessed, the 2018 has a level of textural finesse that really elevates the wine into Pauillac´s upper echelon. Ripe fruit and silky tannins give the 2018 much of its inimitable finesse. At the same time, the 2018 is bright, punchy and surprisingly fresh, not to mention absolutely impeccable in its balance. The blend is 78% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Merlot, while new oak is 80%."

"78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot

En 2018 la production représente 50% des 73ha du vignoble. Les vieilles vignes de merlot ont été vendangées les 24 et 25 septembre alors que la récole des cabernet sauvignon s’est déroulée entre le 3 et le 10 octobre. L’élevage dure 18 mois et a lieu dans 80% de barriques neuves et 20% de barriques d’un vin. Bouquet expressif alliant les notes fruitées, florales et minérales. Je relève des effluves de baies noires et de réglisse ainsi qu’une agréable touche d’iris. Au palais, le vin est friand, compact et doté de tannins denses aux grains fins. Ils se révèlent lentement et assurent idéalement les arrières. Un vin puissant qui se révèle en fin de bouche et qui doit encore gagner en finesse. Cela ne m’empêche pas de lui donner une note élevée, car la matière présente est convaincante et prometteuse."
