The Pauillac Classic: Lacoste Borie – Second Wine of Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Lacoste Borie is the consistent and highly reliable Second Wine of the Fifth Growth, Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste. It is a benchmark for the Pauillac appellation, presenting the renowned gravel-rich terroir in a style that is both immediately charming and capable of medium-term cellaring. This offers true Cru Classé quality without the extensive wait.

Tasting Profile: Structure Meets Finesse

• Colour: A vibrant, deep ruby-garnet.
• Bouquet: Classic Pauillac notes of intense blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum, layered with subtle oak spice, tobacco leaf, and a distinct hint of graphite.
• Mouthfeel: A beautifully proportioned wine that is medium-bodied with a supple core of fruit. The tannins are refined and polished, providing structure and a graceful texture that is characteristic of the Borie family’s winemaking philosophy.

Serving Suggestions

A superb accompaniment to traditional British Sunday roasts or sophisticated game dishes. Decant for 60-90 minutes and serve at 17°C. This vintage is designed to deliver pleasure now, but will happily evolve in the cellar.
