Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste 2017 750ml
$270.00 price per bottle
The assemblage of Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2017 is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon (80%), permitting our terroir to express the character and charm of our splendid Cabernets. The wine is a deep, bright, ruby colour. The bouquet releases scents of ripe red fruit, violets, and spices. An attractive fresh minerality complements this. The attack is precise, clean, and long on the palate, with its ripe and melted tannins. This is a wine of great balance, allying charm, elegance, and freshness; it is aromatic, with an aftertaste of considerable purity. This 2017 breaks the mould of vintages ending in "7" as it demonstrates the richness of expression of the beautiful terroir of Pauillac, combining balance, delicate fruit, and ripe tannins. 94 Points - Decanter
These guys often over-deliver in challenging years and have done so yet again. As you would expect in a vintage that has produced such an excellent Lacoste Borie, this GPL is exceptional, a real success that's juicy and carefully extracted. It has weight and impact, with a Pauillac tannic hold and presence. It's one of my wines of the vintage and a must-buy. The balanced, sculpted, juicy black fruits fully deliver personality and signature style. 93 Points - James Suckling
Aromas of fresh raspberries with some lemon peel and fresh herbs follow through to a full to medium body. Fresh herbs and graphite highlight the wine. Chewy finish. 92 Points - Wine Spectator
A taut and minerally version, defined by a chalky underpinning that harnesses the core of damson plum, bitter cherry, and red currant fruit. Streaks of cedar, chestnut, and bay leaf mark the finish. Shows the austere, iron-driven side of Pauillac. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. 91 Points - Wine Enthusiast
This stylish wine displays plenty of black currant fruit framed by fine tannins. Medium-bodied, it has a juicy core that is already attractive, but for best enjoyment, drink from 2023.
