The 2007 Château Pichon Baron from Pauillac, Médoc is a distinguished Bordeaux red wine, celebrated for its depth and complexity. While the specific blend isn't detailed, Pauillac typically combines Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, with possible additions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The 2007 vintage in Bordeaux was marked by a relatively cool and wet growing season, demanding careful vineyard management. This wine showcases the classic Pauillac style with structured tannins and flavours of blackcurrant, cedar, and a hint of mineral and earthiness that come from its terroir.
Pauillac, situated within Bordeaux's renowned Médoc region, is famed for its gravelly soils which aid in draining excess water and retaining heat, crucial for the ripening of Cabernet Sauvignon. The maritime climate, influenced by the nearby Atlantic, ensures a balance of warmth and rainfall, essential for developing the complex character of the wines. With a rich history dating back centuries, the wines of Pauillac, particularly those like Pichon Baron, are synonymous with elegance and longevity.
When it comes to pairing, the robust and structured nature of this Pauillac makes it ideal for hearty dishes. Grilled or roasted meats, such as lamb or beef, especially those with rich sauces, complement the wine’s tannic structure. A classic dish like entrecôte à la bordelaise, a rib steak cooked with red wine and shallots, aligns beautifully with its profile. Hard cheeses, particularly aged varieties like Comté or Cantal, also enhance its complex flavours.
For the best tasting experience, allow the Château Pichon Baron 2007 to breathe for an hour or two before serving. This will allow the wine to open up and reveal its intricate layers of flavour. Serve it at a temperature of around 16-18°C to fully appreciate its aromatic bouquet and well-balanced palate.
