Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Case Format: 75cl

Max score: 93

Drink To: 2028-2043

A welcome combination of violet and spices, laden with rich blackcurrant and cassis fruit immediately hits the nose when trying the first sip of Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste. Formed of 90 hectares planted with Cabernet Sauvignon (c.75%) and Merlot (c.25%), their terroir constitutes deep gravel beds over limestone, allowing the 38-year-old vines to thrive. The wine is aged in 75% new barrels for 16-18 months. The end result is a luscious wine of an intense red-purple colour whose palate is teaming with fruits that are met with rounded, smooth tannins that linger long after each sip.

Antonio Galloni

The 2021 Grand-Puy-Lacoste is a super-expressive wine. Cabernet Sauvignon drives the blend, and that translates in the wine's flavor profile. Plum, dried herbs, menthol and spice gradually emerge. Although the 2021 is a bit tight today, it comes across as more of a medium-term proposition.
