CHÂTEAU GRAND-PUY-LACOSTE

Pauillac 2010

Score: 92-95

Juicy and still a bit compact, but with red currant, blackberry and roasted vanilla flavors. Shows the racy style of the vintage, with a solid core of fruit for balance. The pure, lengthy finish has nice polish, and this is rock-solid, with a flash of coffee at the end.
