Rezensionen & Bewertungen
96 Robert Parker
The 2019 Grand-Puy-Lacoste exhibits notions of minty cassis, plums, loamy soil, burning embers and cigar wrapper, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety palate that’s deep and concentrated, its generous core of lively fruit concealing an elegantly muscular chassis of ripe, powdery tannin. Consisting of fully 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is another true classic from the Borie family.

The 2019 Grand Puy Lacoste, as usual, requires plenty of aeration in the glass. Then boom! You get that gorgeous, classic Pauillac raspberry and blackberry fruit infused with cedar and pencil box scents. The harmonious, poised palate has wonderful focus, very fine tannins and a silky-smooth texture. As I remarked in my previous note, it’s very pliant and persistent, with a graphite-tinged finish. A glorious Grand Puy Lacoste that will need time to assimilate the oak – but hey, GPL lovers know the rules.

This is a very polished young wine with lemon-rind, blackcurrant, cedar and lavender character. It’s full, yet so refined and sophisticated, with floral undertones to the pretty fruit. The tannins are intense and long. Give this at least five or six years to soften. Try after 2025.

Dark but vibrant and racy, with sleek black currant, blackberry and black cherry puree flavors coursing through, pierced by a graphite spine and backed by tobacco, singed alder and freshly plowed humus notes. The long finish has a smoldering hint without sacrificing the purity of the fruit. Rock-solid. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2024 through 2040. 10,000 cases made. — JM

Château Grand Puy Lacoste
Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste ist die Quinetessenz eines Pauillac-Weinguts und bringt seit Jahrzehnten vortreffliche klassische Bordeaux-Rotweine hervor. Als eines der ältesten familienbetriebenen Châteaux der Appellation ging es seit dem 16. Jahrhundert durch die Hände nur dreier verschiedener Familien. So erwarb als dritte die Familie Borie den Besitz im Jahr 1978. Inzwischen haben über drei Generationen der Bories zum hohen Ansehen des Weinguts beigetragen, das heute gemeinschaftlich von François-Xavier aus der zweiten Generation und seiner ältesten Tochter Emeline geleitet wird. Gelegen am linken Ufer der Gironde-Mündung, bewirtschaftet das Château 55 Hektar seiner 90 Hektar Rebfläche hauptsächlich mit Cabernet Sauvignon, neben einem kleineren Teil Merlot und Cabernet Franc. Als klassisches Bordeaux-Weingut produziert es zwei erstklassige Weine, beide mit einem samtigen Gerüst aus Cabernet Sauvignon. Der Grand Vin Grand-Puy-Lacoste dieses klassifizierten Gewächses ist ein nobler und kraftvoller Roter, ebenso präzise und elegant wie robust.
