Château Grand Puy Lacoste Variation Box

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste is a wine estate situated on a low hillock (or "puy") above the village of Bages in the Pauillac region of the Médoc. Classified as a fifth growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, the Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant grand vin is known for its velvety texture, cigar box and cassis aromas. Grand-Puy-Lacoste, sometimes shortened to "GPL" in some circles, is a well-regarded estate. Sometimes considered as outperforming its fifth-growth status, it is often cited for its good value among its stablemates and neighbors in Pauillac.

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2023 is a classic, finely tuned Pauillac, showing aromas of cassis, blackcurrant, blackberry, violet, cedar, graphite, and subtle tobacco and spice. The palate is structured yet elegant, with firm but polished tannins, fresh acidity, and a core of pure dark fruit framed by a strong gravelly minerality. The finish is long, precise, and linear, combining cassis lift, floral detail, and a distinctly classic Pauillac pencil-shaving character.

A special wooden case that can only be ordered en primeur - contains 4 regular size bottles, 2 magnums and 1 double magnum.
