Château Grand Puy Lacoste 5ème Grand Cru Classé 2025
Pauillac AOC
13%
4.5L
Intensity
Grand-Puy Lacoste's vineyard is planted on gravelly soil and has the particularity of not having any Cabernet Franc. The resulting wines have a great capacity to age. Richly-coloured, tannic, vigorous and full-bodied, they are considered to be a perfect example of classic Pauillac. In good vintages they can rival the Médoc's finest wines.
A fairly woody nose with dark fruits (blackcurrant, blueberry). The palate is quite powerful but fresh with a very elongated finish and tannins that build up very gradually. The wine has a lovely overall balance. 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot
About the Producer Château Grand Puy Lacoste
Located on the Bages plateau in Pauillac, this château results of the division of the immense domain Grand-Puy Lacoste in the 18th century into Château Lynch-Bages and Château Grand Puy Ducasse. Classified fifth growth in 1855, François-Xavier Borie managed to raise Grand-Puy Lacoste among the best of the appellation. The second wine of the property is called Lacoste-Borie.
