Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste Pauillac 2016

The Borie family has owned the property since 1978. François-Xavier Borie has restored it to greatness and preserved its spirit. Jean-Eugène Borie, who loved the Médoc and its vines, bought the property in 1978. He entrusted it to his eldest son, François-Xavier, who gradually renovated the château and its winemaking facilities. Today, his eldest daughter, Emeline, works at his side.

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste Pauillac 2016 vintage is once again the expression of the great terroir of Grand Puy Lacoste which underlines all its richness, complexity and elegance. It will take its place without any doubt among the great successes of the property thus completing a fine trilogy of vintages.

This is all about the finish with a sweet-tobacco, berry and light milk-chocolate character. Full body, very fine tannins and a juicy finish. Love the intensity and finesse at the end. Lots of energy. Could better the exquisite 2014. - James Suckling, 96-97 points
