Structured Pauillac character defines Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2000, with layered aromas of ripe blackberry, cedar, black tea and a touch of cool mint rising from the glass. On the palate it is smooth yet firmly built, the fine, persistent tannins wrapped in dark cassis fruit, tobacco, and subtle earthy spice that stretch into a long, savory finish. This is a serious, classic vintage of Grand-Puy-Lacoste, now entering a beautiful mature phase while retaining impressive energy and depth.

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste is the grand vin of this historic Pauillac fifth growth, a Cabernet Sauvignon–dominant Bordeaux red grown on very deep coarse gravel plateaus west of the village of Pauillac. Regarded as a “great classic” of the appellation, it typically marries pure, ripe cassis and tobacco-cedar notes with refined but structured tannins, showcasing both the elegance and aging potential of its Médoc terroir under the long-term stewardship of the Borie family.
