The 2021 Grand-Puy-Lacoste is fabulous. Bright and punchy with terrific aromatic presence the 2021 is a terrific example of the modern classicism of the year at its best. It's the sort of wine that needs years or maybe even decades to truly blossom and yet all the requisites are there for that to happen. There is something about Grand-Puy-Lacoste that is absolutely striking in 2021. I can't wait to taste it from bottle. Tasted two times.

13 May 2022 ? Very fine and polished tannins with lovely balance and beauty. Blackberries blackcurrants and a creamy texture. Lovely finesse and focus. There?s delicacy and beauty to this. 85% cabernet sauvignon and 15% merlot.

The 2021 Grand-Puy-Lacoste is a beauty bursting with aromas of dark berries plums rose petals violets warm spices and cigar wrapper. Medium to full-bodied supple and seamless it's fleshy and enveloping with melting tannins succulent acids and a pleasure-bent demonstrative personality. While it's clear that this is an irresistibly charming satisfying Pauillac from the Borie family it wouldn't surprise me to see it acquire additional depth flesh and seriousness with further barrel maturation.
