Note di degustazione
The 2023 Lacoste-Borie has a little more clarity than I noticed from barrel, well-defined with blackberry and bilberry fruit, an underlying marine influence surfacing with time. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly hard tannins on the entry. Quite strict, focused but perhaps just missing a little nuance on the finish, though that manifests with later tastings.

Enjoyable, well balanced, juicy, savoury, appellation typicity, easy to recommend. 42% new oak for ageing.
First made in 1982, the 2023 Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste Lacoste-Borie is the second wine of Château Grand-Puy Lacoste and is based on 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, and 11% Cabernet Franc, harvested from September 11 to the 28th. It boasts a healthy purple hue as well as juicy notes of ripe black cherries, currants, violets, spring flowers, and a kiss of graphite. Medium-bodied, upfront, and charming, it has the bright acidity of the vintage, a pure, juicy style, and a good finish.
Vibrant red fruits, cedar, tobacco, and herbs open the nose. The wine is medium-bodied, crisp, bright, and forward, with a charming, spicy red currant finish. The wine blends 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon.

In 1978 the Borie family took over Grand-Puy-Lacoste and Xavier Borie has been making exceptional wines here ever since. With 58 hectares of vines around the château, this is a wine with real Pauillac style.
