Note di degustazione
Mid garnet. Very low-key nose but the suggestion of good balance underneath. Sweet, gentle start is absolutely innocuous but is overall a little light. That said, it would please classicists and is not overpriced. GV (JR)

Full bottle 1,302 g. Looks mature. Sweet start and a little bit of char on the end. I think there are much better value red bordeaux out there.... This is ageing quite fast. (JR)
The 2015 Lacoste-Borie has a rather herbal bouquet with pencil shaving and smoke aromas, perhaps needing a little more flesh to come through. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grip. A nicely structured wine, with more breeding on the palate than on the nose. If the aromatics can improve this might turn out to be a fine 2015. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
Tasted blind. Mid ruby. Spicy, fairly attractive nose. But pretty simple on the palate. Merlot sweepings? Inky finish. (JR)

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.
