Heerlijke tweede wijn van Ch. Grand Puy Lacoste. 62% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot en 9% Cabernet Franc. IN DE PERS 92 Neal Martin – vinous.com (Februari 2022) The 2019 Lacoste-Borie was impressive as a barrel sample sent to my home last spring. Now in bottle, it has a vivacious, quite floral, almost Margaux-like bouquet that bursts from the glass, featuring raspberry, rooibos and black currant aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with good concentration, a little spicier than I remember and a little softer in the finish, yet with good length and admirable harmony. It should drink nicely after a couple of years. 14.3% alcohol. Drink 2023-2040. 91-93 Neal Martin – vinous.com (Juni 2020) The 2019 Lacoste-Borie has a really quite gorgeous bouquet with blackberry and freshly picked raspberry while subtle floral scents emerge with time. The oak is neatly integrated here. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and well judged acidity. Hints of graphite give away its Pauillac origins towards the finish. This is a well-crafted Lacoste-Borie that is approachable yet has the substance to age. Very fine. Drink 2023-2040. 90 Antonio Galloni - vinous.com (Februari 2022) The 2019 Lacoste-Borie is bright, focused and wonderfully vibrant. This nervy, mid-weight Pauillac offers tons of near and medium-term appeal. Crushed flowers, spice and sweet red berry fruit linger. Drink 2022-2034. 90 Wiliam Kelley - robertparker.com (April 2022) The 2019 Lacoste-Borie is a wine of immense charm. Wafting from the glass with aromas of cassis, licorice and sweet spices, loamy soil and cigar wrapper, it’s medium to full-bodied, fleshy and seamless, with ripe tannins, succulent acids and a round, giving profile. Drink 2023-2043. This 90-hectare estate (some 60 hectares of which are in production), situated in a single block on a gravel dome around the château, has long been a favorite among Bordeaux insiders. Under Emeline Borie's direction, subtle refinements have been made: more than 100 soil pits were dug to better understand the château's geology; herbicides have never been used here, but now 20 hectares are devoted to a trial of organic farming; since 2013, a vertical press is used; and since 2012, the new vintage goes to barrel immediately after malolactic fermentation, before being blended early in the new year. Today's wines are a touch more immediately charming and structurally polished than the Grand-Puy-Lacoste of fifteen years ago, yet they have lost none of their classic Cabernet-driven Pauillac character. I regularly purchase this estate's wines for my own cellar, and the 2019 vintage is certainly no exception! 91 Jane Anson – decanter.com (Juni 2020) 16,5/20 James Lawther MW – jancisrobinson.com (Juni 2020) Cabernet cassis and graphite nose. Juicy and concentrated on the palate with just a hint of oak. Solid tannic frame behind. Dry, grainy finish. Serious little number. Probably GV. Drink 2025-2034. 89-91 Jeff Leve – winecellarinsider.com (Juni 2020) Pepper, flowers and red fruits open the wine before finding the soft, medium-bodied, fresh, sweet red berries on the palate and in the refined, spicy finish. Enjoy this while waiting for the Grand Vin to develop. It will offer pleasure early. Grand Puy LacosteChateau Grand Puy Lacoste in Pauillac is gerespecteerd en geliefd.
