Vintages
set to music
Because civilization is built over generations;
Because each generation composes a new work;
Because each year, we make the most of what nature bestows us,
Each new vintage offers a new interpretation.
« Like the creation of a brand-new blend, music, through its vibrations and the unique way it resonates, has this incredible power of plunging us into our inner silence, into our most intimate emotions.
Each tune chosen forges close ties with wine and history, our history, that of Pichon Comtesse. Where were we? What did we feel? Which path did we take? And what about you? What will you feel? That’s how wine is set to music… »
