Over het wijnhuis Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste is een 5e Grand Cru Classé, gevestigd in Pauillac. De geschiedenis van Grand-Puy-Lacoste gaat terug naar de 16e eeuw. Lange tijd bleef het in handen van dezelfde familie, de familie Lacoste. Sinds 1978 is het eigendom van de familie Borie, die ook Château Ducru-Beaucaillou in St. Julien en Château Haut-Batailley in Pauillac bezitten.

Awards "The 2021 Grand-Puy-Lacoste is one of the vintage's successes, wafting from the glass with aromas of cassis and raspberries mingled with notions of violets, rose petals, pencil shavings and cigar wrapper. Medium to full-bodied, with a deep, layered core of pure fruit framed by ripe acids and sweet tannins, its suave, charming profile means that it will offer a broad drinking window. A slightly lower percentage of new oak, with lighter toasts, is reflected in better barrel integration out of the gates." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"A refined, classic Pauillac with cassis, pencil shavings, ash and cherries. Juicy and really fine on the palate with silky tannins unwound into a layered, long finish. A refined, elegant interpretation that does not fall short on intensity. Real finesse here. Already delicious, but can hold, too." - James Suckling

"85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot. Mid-deep ruby. Good focus to the nose here, stony and cool but with enough fruit ripeness. The palate has Pauillac's grip but is more airy and delicate than normal. A gentle, well-proportioned wine, this will drink well in the medium term. (TP)" - James Suckling

"The 2021 Grand Puy Lacoste, matured in around 70% new oak and bottled in June 2023, is about as classic a Bordeaux as you will find in contemporary Bordeaux, which is not unexpected given the vintage and château in question. Black fruit, cedar and tobacco unfurl on the nose with pencil shavings coming through with time—it is much more open and expressive compared to recent vintages. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, one of the most saline vintages in recent years with a gentle build toward the finish. It's not a showstopper. It's not the apotheosis of GPL. But you'll finish the bottle and probably want another glass." - Vinous

"Pure and fresh, with a mix of damson plum and red cherry notes laced with sandalwood, red tea and sanguine accents. Shows a lively savory streak, which adds energy to this relatively understated style. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Drink now through 2035." - Wine Spectator

"Lovely pretty and fragranced nose. A sense of classicism with bright, shining acidity underpinning crushed velvet textured tannins and a cola, liquorice cool undertone. Slightly lean but also with lots of Cabernet markers that do well to support the frame. Good weight and focus, with drive on the palate. It's light, it's not plush at all, and in that sense really quite linear and lean, but this totally works." - Decanter
