CRITIC REVIEWS
Neal Martin
The 2022 Grand Puy Lacoste, observed out of barrel, offers a more sensual and generous bouquet than previous vintages, with blackberry, bilberry and cedar scents emerging from the glass with a hint of pencil box underneath. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, showing more structure than it did from barrel, which is precisely what you want from this Pauillac estate. Tobacco and graphite notes towards the finish linger beautifully in classical style. This is a very impressive wine that will mature with panache and stature.

75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc.Dark and interesting on the nose! The luscious fruit on the palate entry almost disguises the tannin. Lovely limpid fruit, this should not disappoint red bordeaux lovers. Just what is required even if it's not the most exciting wine in the world. (JR)
