Château Les Griffons de Pichon Baron - Pauillac 2018

2018 was characterised by moderate winter temperatures with no extremes. There was regular rainfall from early December to the end of March. The total rainfall was significant, exceeding 500 mm, that is to say approximately 180 mm above average. Spring was mild, followed by a very hot, dry summer. Bud break, which started in early April, was consistent. However, more heavy rainfall and optimum temperatures favoured the development of cryptogamic diseases, leading to very significant crop losses in places. Flowering started at the end of May and continued smoothly. Great care was taken to protect the health of the vines up until the end of July. Then a phase of water stress, unfavourable to grape growth, gradually increased leading up to the harvest. Average and maximum temperatures were very high between bunch closure and the end of veraison, lower than in 2003 but slightly higher than in 2005. Veraison began in the early sectors in the last week of July and mid-veraison in early August.
Moderate temperatures resulted in very good ripening conditions. 2018 was comparable to 2005, with earlier development than in 2015. This early tendency for sunny weather continued until the end of the harvest. High temperatures and water stress were optimum for the anthocyanic richness of the skins and early ripening of the tannins. At the same time, the potential alcohol content increased rapidly, total acidity and malic acid levels were low and pH high.

The 2018 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron is matured in 60% new oak, and at the time of my tasting the wood is dominating the fruit. Christian Seely remarked that it has "pulled ahead" in the months since en primeur. That will be subsumed with time – wood and fruit seem proportionate to each other. The palate is quite dense and powerful, offering layers of toasty black fruit laced with white pepper and sage. This is one of the most intense Les Griffons that I have tasted, and it will need several years to temper those slightly abrasive tannins. In a word: big.

[...] Am kräftigen Gaumen mit seidiger Textur, fleischigem Extrakt; reifes stützendes Tanningerüst und gute Frische. Im gebündelten Finale mit herrlichem schwarzbeerigem Fruchtdruck, viel Graphit und Eisenkraut. Tolle Leistung!

Deeply colored, with a rocking bouquet of crème de cassis, lead pencil, black cherries, earth and flowers, it's more finesse-driven and structured than the Les Tourelles de Longueville, with a straight, focused, yet still layered and ripe personality. It's another beautiful wine.

Plus dans l’esprit pauillac que tourelles, intense, équilibré, vraiment réussi.
Septembre 2019 17/20

Guide Bettane et Desseauve 2020 : 4 étoiles pour le domaine : [...] Deux types de second vin sont produits: tourelles recherche la souplesse et le fruit mais avec une belle plénitude, griffons porte davantage la marque du terroir.

byJeff Levethe4/23/2019

With a strong floral character, the wine needs a bit of coaxing to bring out its deep, dark red fruits. Graceful, agile and fresh with the tannic bite of the Cabernet Sauvignon and the roundness from the sweet Merlot, this wine was made from blending 52% Cabernet Sauvignon and 48% Merlot and will age in 60% new, French oak barrels.

byLisa Perrotti-Brownthe4/23/2019

The 2018 Les Griffons de Pichon Baron is a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon and 48% Merlot, to be aged 12 months in barriques, 30% new and 70% one year old. Production represents 20% of the harvest this year. Very deep purple-black in color, it comes bounding out of the glass with frisky cassis, chocolate-covered cherries and boysenberries scents followed up by notions of dried Provence herbs, moss-covered bark, charcuterie and tapenade. Full, rich and opulent in the mouth, it has bold black fruit and savory expressions, with firm, grainy tannins and a long, meaty finish.

[...] Gorgeous Cabernet aroma: upright, a touch spicy and such pure non-sweet cassis. Slightly charry on the palate, but the tannins are so fine, you don't see their density. More chewy than the Tourelles on the finish, more structured but still supple and generous on the finish. A very impressive Griffons.
Dans l’article : “[...] I would also single out Ch Pichon Baron's Les Griffons, which revealed the glory of perfectly ripe, slowly ripened Cabernet Sauvignon [...]”.

Cassis, épices, mûre avec une touche florale élégante. Bouche massive mais bien enrobée, de la fraîcheur, une grosse charge tannique avec une tension superbe, des tanins serrés et frais avec de l'allonge. Superbement construit dans la masse tout en ayant du charme et une réelle ossature. Bravo !

This is a concentrated Griffons this year, with claws (I'll get my coat). It’s intense with lots of power and layers up quickly with inky tight cassis notes and akin to 2010 in feel. [...] it certainly makes you feel the link to the first wine [...].

Structured yet very fine-tannined with lovely integration and depth of blackberry and blueberry character. Medium to full body. Vivid finish.

Ma meilleure note donnée à ce cru en primeur. Couleur sombre, intense et belle. Nez moyennement aromatique, au fruité fumé et crémeux, avec une profondeur inhabituelle. Moelleux à l'attaque, éclatant de fruits dès le milieu de bouche, le vin évolue puissant, juteux et gras en finale, avec du goût et une très bonne enveloppe tannique. C'est délicieux.

Solid, with a core of cassis and dark cherry flavors flanked by iron and sweet tobacco notes. A solid, singed cedar frame wraps around it all. Very Cabernet-like in feel.
