CHATEAU GRAND PUY LACOSTE - PAUILLAC - 2015 - 0.75 L
The vineyard area of Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste is 58 hectares, and the average age of the vines is 40 years. The grape variety is 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and Cabernet Franc 5%. The work of the vineyard is traditional and respects the soil: harvest in green, leaf stripping and manual harvest but also treatment of the vine in reasoned struggle. Once the clusters are picked up they are then sorted on a vibrating table before and after destemming. Since their acquisition, the Borie family has been responsible for the complete renovation of the estate’s farm buildings, which has just been completed with the construction of a large barrel cellar. The wine will stay in barrels of which 75% are new.

Tasting Notes
Grand Puy Lacoste 2015 will go down in history as one of the great vintages, a vintage which demonstrates the great class and wonderful quality of the vineyard. Made with a majority of Cabernet Sauvignon (74%) the wine has a lovely structure and balance, which amply demonstrate the complexities and opulence of this truly wonderful vintage. The wine is an intense, deep red. The nose is opulent with notes of black fruit and ripe blackcurrants. These notes are complemented by notes of spice and violets, all with a lovely freshness, underlined by the presence of cabernet franc (3%) in the final blend. On the palate the wine is dense and precise, the aromas and textures build on the mid-palate and are carried by rich, powerful, well rounded tannins. The 2015, precise and complex, with freshness and excellent length is a very classy wine indeed. It compares well with the best vintages of Grand Puy Lacoste and its complexity is a wonderful expression of terroir.
