If you want to understand why people fall for Pauillac, Grand-Puy-Lacoste is the wine to pour. Run by the Borie family since 1978, GPL is the benchmark traditionalist of the appellation: deep gravel over limestone, roughly 83% Cabernet Sauvignon in 2019, and a wine that tastes unmistakably of place year after year. The 2019 comes from a warm, balanced vintage that produced a rich, velvety version of the house style, a touch more approachable young than usual but built for the long haul. Cassis, cigar box and mint are its calling cards. Decant it now for a treat, or lay it down comfortably into the 2040s.

Robert Parker

"The 2019 Grand-Puy-Lacoste exhibits notions of minty cassis, plums, loamy soil, burning embers and cigar wrapper, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety palate that’s deep and concentrated, its generous core of lively fruit concealing an elegantly muscular chassis of ripe, powdery tannin. Consisting of fully 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is another true classic from the Borie family." —William Kelley

"Tasted blind. Perfumed, flattering nose, with a sweet, gentle palate. Easy to like, even if it’s not the most complex wine. Lots of tannin on the end. Very sweet." —Jancis Robinson MW

Decanter

96 points

"Generous nose, I love the smell here, richly fruited. The palate is on the linear, darker side with liquorice and coffee tones, lean and muscular - without any extra fat. A little austere at this point but good freshness and some bright cherry flavours on the finish. Overall a dark, heady, deep style with plenty of power, just waiting to open and expand. Give it some time."

Wine Spectator

95 points

"Dark but vibrant and racy, with sleek black currant, blackberry and black cherry puree flavors coursing through, pierced by a graphite spine and backed by tobacco, singed alder and freshly plowed humus notes. The long finish has a smoldering hint without sacrificing the purity of the fruit. Rock-solid. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2024 through 2040."

More about Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Classic Pauillac at its best. François-Xavier Borie runs this 36-hectare fifth growth with rigor—75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 50% new oak, 18 months aging. Full-bodied, tannic, meant for the cellar. Outperforming its classification for years.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Grilled and roasted red meat above all: lamb, prime rib, venison. Great with duck, game birds, or a wedge of aged Comte.

Tasting Profile

Minty cassis, blackberry and plum framed by cedar and cigar box. Full-bodied and velvety, with fresh acidity, ripe firm tannins, and a long finish.
