Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2018 - Pauillac

Score : 17,5

Deep in colour, with a succulent nose of cassis and black cherries, lifted by notes of cherry blossom and subtle nutmeg and clove. The palate has bright acidity, bringing real vibrancy to the ripe but restrained black fruit. There is a mineral core to the wine, but the ripe and refined tannins give more voluptuous feel, adding gentle spice and sweetness. Velveteen and beautifully poised, there is a long, harmonious finish. A fantastic Grand Puy Lacoste.
