Tasting notes
The Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2020 boasts a deep, almost black, red color, reflecting its concentration. On the nose, aromas of ripe black fruit, blackcurrant, and cherry mingle with delicate notes of cedar and spice. On the palate, the texture is velvety, with silky tannins that coat the mouth. The finish is long and persistent, hinting at a beautiful minerality and promising complexity.

The Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste vineyard stretches across gravelly and sandy-gravelly soils, typical of Pauillac, which promote optimal drainage and excellent sun exposure. The vines, most of which are over 30 years old, benefit from an ideal microclimate, with maritime influences moderating temperature extremes. The estate practices sustainable viticulture, respecting the ecosystem to preserve biodiversity and ensure the long-term health of its vines. Each plot is carefully cultivated to reveal the full potential of each grape variety, thus contributing to the unique character of the wines produced.
