What the critics say
91 VMVinous, Neal Martin, 17-06-2025
The 1985 Pichon-Longueville Comtesse de Lalande is a vintage that was overshadowed by the superior 1986. Over a dozen encountered over the years has consistently proven that this was always an open and generous Pauillac with modest ambitions. This has fragrant dark berry fruit with a light algae-like tincture, then later hints of iris flower. The palate is medium-bodied and fleshier than the aforementioned '86, and soft tannins with gentle grip lead to a peppery finish. A bit soft and squidgy perhaps, but it slips down the throat with ease. I know there are better bottles than this example. Tasted in October 2024 at the 1985 dinner at Noble Rot Mayfair.
90 WAWine Advocate, Robert Parker, 01-01-2003
Fully mature, this wine shows some pink at the edge, a sweet nose of herb-tinged cherries and black currants intermixed with dusty notes and new oak. The wine is medium-bodied, elegant, very flattering, and perfumed. It does not have the weight, depth, or dimensions of the top vintages, but is quite seductive. Anticipated maturity: Now-2005. Last tasted, 5/02.
