Note di degustazione
Interesting to see the difference in the shape of the tannins with the 2005; this is a gorgeous wine but with slightly harder edges. Impressively fresh acidities that emphasisd crushed mint and eucalyptus, still with great juice through the finish. Proof again of how Grand Puy Lacoste overperfoms in challenging vintages. Classic, balanced, plenty of textured slate on the finish. Harvest September 27 to October 13, 70% new oak.

Dark with some evolution. A bit sweaty on the nose. Heavy and thick and a bit cocoa-y. Finishes a bit suddenly. (JR)
Pale ruby. Light but very classically dry. Mouthfilling. Great balance and attractive lift on the finish. Still a teensy bit dry and tough on the end so I'd wait just a year or two. (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.
