In a few words ...
An estate that knows how to make the most of the Pauillac terroir. A classic regional blend producing wines of great structure.
"The Grand Puy Lacoste 2011, dressed in ruby and purple, presents a charming bouquet of red and black fruits. Luscious, fleshy and fragrant, this Pauillac from Xavier Borie can be enjoyed for 10-15+ years."
Tasting notes
Appearance
Dense, dark garnet color, drawing on purple in its youth.
Aroma
The bouquet consists of black and red fruits, roasting, licorice and leather.
Wine Empyreumatic | Fruity | Spicy
Taste
The Pauillacs are vigorous and tannic, which softens with age which allows the tannins to melt and give a nice and round structure.
