Second wine of the Grand-Puy Lacosete estate, this wine is produced from the youngest vines in the vineyard. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc are used in the blend. This Pauillac appellation wine is aged in oak barrels. It is an elegant, fruity wine. On tasting, Lacoste-Borie has well-rounded tannins. On the palate, it offers a light crème de cassis flavor. Lacoste-Borie can be enjoyed in its early years, but will gain in roundness after a few years in the cellar.
Appearance

Taste
The Pauillacs are vigorous and tannic, which softens with age which allows the tannins to melt and give a nice and round structure.
