92 points “The second wine of Grand-Puy-Lacoste is a wine for claret drinkers rather than points junkies. Typically floral and refined with very gentle oaking it’s a more serious wine than it seems at first showing supporting tannins a twist of vanilla spice and refreshing acidity.” – Tim Atkin MW
Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste is one of Bordeaux’s oldest estates. This 5ème Cru Classé Pauillac producer has for many years been consistently outperforming its “5th Growth” classification. 2015 was rated an “Outstanding” year in Pauillac by the experts at Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate so the quality of the wines from this vintage is exceptional. Expect juicy black cherry tangy redcurrant strawberry jam plum crumble and exotic spices. As wine critic Matthew Jukes says “This is such a delicious creation in the first instance that you forget it is a second wine.”
