Layered Pauillac character powers the 2024 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste, with vivid red and black currant fruit framed by graphite, pencil shavings, gentle cedar spice and a touch of florals. Medium-bodied yet focused, it feels taut and classic rather than showy, its fine, dusty tannins and lifted acidity giving a long, sapid, slightly savory finish. This is an elegant, quietly serious vintage of Grand-Puy-Lacoste that should gain depth and charm with a bit of time in bottle.

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.
