Château Grand Puy Lacoste 2020

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste is one of Pauillac’s great classic estates and has been a Grand Cru Classé since 1855. The winery lies on a distinctive gravel plateau, the Grand Puy, which was already described in the Middle Ages as an ideal site for vines. The deep gravel-rich soils are perfect for Cabernet Sauvignon and give the wines their typical structure, finesse and remarkable longevity.

Since 1978 the château has belonged to the Borie family, who run the estate with great continuity and a clear commitment to quality. The vineyards are mainly made up of old vines and are cultivated with great care. In the cellar, precise vinification and balanced barrique ageing bring out the elegance and classic Pauillac signature.

Grand-Puy-Lacoste stands today for timeless, powerful yet elegant wines – authentic Médoc classics with pronounced Cabernet aromatics, fine balance and outstanding ageing potential.

Bordeaux is one of the world’s most renowned wine regions – a name that has stood for elegance, diversity and ageing potential for centuries. Gravel, clay and limestone soils alternate, allowing fine nuances in the wines that reflect both terroir and craftsmanship.

Bordeaux is typically known for blends in which grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc work together harmoniously.

Stylistically, red Bordeaux wines are defined by a balance of fruit, structure and freshness. The white wines – usually made from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and sometimes Muscadelle – range from crisp and citrus-driven to creamy and complex.
