Description
Château Grand Puy Lacoste 5th Growth Pauillac, Bordeaux, France, 2005
Grapes: 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc
Xavier Borie has made a delicious, forward wine. Carefully extracted, fresh and immediately appealing but with the balance and depth to age well.
"Pure crème de cassis, licorice and spice are all present in this wine from Xavier Borie. Medium to full-bodied and ripe, with sweet tannin and a nicely textured mouthfeel, this is a beauty that should continue to drink well for another 15 or so years."
92/100 points, Robert Parker, robertparker.com, June 2015
