Note di degustazione
Significantly softer than 1998, beautifully graceful, with whisps of campfire smoke and autumnal hedgerow blackberry puree, held in place by barely there tannins. A warm vintage and you see the generosity. It is absolutely ready to drink, and begging for a quiet corner and a good book. Soft in the finish but with poise and charm. September 18 to October 3.

Blackish crimson. Sweet, ripe start with even a hint of milk chocolate on the nose. Fresh start. Not the purest expression of Pauillac. Just a tad New Worldy. But it certainly has appeal. (JR)
Pretty and lightly floral on the nose. Fresh, slightly light and skinny – a “lunchtime claret”. Serve with something not too heavy. (JR)
Informazioni sul produttore
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.
