12 fl. Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2009 (12)

12 fl. Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste Pauillac 5. Grand Cru Classé 2009. I original trækasse(Owc) Robert Parker's note:"Performing better from bottle than it did from cask (and comparable to their wines 2005, 2000, 1990 and 1982), this is a great classic from Xavier Borie?s estate situated on the back roads west of the town of Pauillac. Its dense ruby/purple color is followed by hints of spring flowers, crushed rocks, black currants, cedar and earth/underbrush. Precise and elegant as well as backward and foreboding, it should put on weight in the bottle and evolve for two decades. Very concentrated as well as velvety-textured, it is a beauty of finesse, balance, purity and nobility. It will benefit from 5-7 more years of bottle age." 95 points
