The 2013 Pichon-Longueville Baron is a Bordeaux blend from the Pauillac sub-region of Bordeaux, France. This vintage has been noted for standing out among its peers, with Robert Parker's Wine Advocate suggesting it is "potentially the best of all the Pauillacs in 2013," sharing this accolade with Mouton Rothschild. The wine exhibits a dense purple color, not typical for the vintage, and offers flavors of crème de cassis, licorice, forest floor, and white flowers. With a blend of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon and 18% Merlot, it is described as medium-bodied yet very complete, with serious texture and ripe tannins.

Wine Enthusiast awarded this wine a score of 94, highlighting its ripe black currants and plums and describing it as "full-bodied and rich, with good structure plus acidity to give the right freshness." They suggest enjoying this wine from 2022 onwards. Similarly, James Suckling praised its depth and finish, noting its "chocolate, blackberry, black currant, and light mint character," and recommended it as excellent even before its peak drinking window in 2019.

Jane Anson gave this wine a score of 92, commending its architecture of tannins and dark fruits, indicating it has "over-performed the vintage in general." Decanter also scored it 92, noting its robust and imposing nature with a compact and dense structure. While it may lack some finesse, they emphasize its typical assertive Pauillac character with considerable staying power.

Overall, the 2013 Pichon-Longueville Baron is celebrated for its richness and structure, with multiple reviewers recommending it for its excellent portrayal of the Pauillac region, despite the challenges of the vintage.
