Évaluations et Scores
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.
96 Vinous
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
Quintessence de Pauillac, le Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste assure la production de vins rouges classiques et admirables depuis des décennies. Depuis le 16ème siècle, seules trois familles auront présidé au destin de ce lieu, l’une des plus anciennes propriétés familiales de l’appellation. La dernière, connue sous le nom de Borie, a acquis le Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste en 1978. Plus de trois générations ont ainsi contribué à asseoir l’illustre réputation du château. Aujourd’hui, la deuxième génération issue de cette lignée, a les traits de François-Xavier, et de sa fille Emeline. Les 90 hectares du domaine longent la Rive Gauche de l’Estuaire de la Gironde. Cinquante-cinq hectares sont dédiés à la culture de la vigne, dominés par le cabernet-sauvignon, les superficies de merlot et de cabernet franc étant complémentaires. Ce château bordelais typique produit deux vins de tout premier plan, la trame veloutée des deux étant la marque de fabrique du cabernet-sauvignon du domaine. Noble et puissant, le grand vin rouge issu de ce cru classé – le Grand-Puy-Lacoste – est aussi précis et élégant qu’il est charpenté.
