Château Lacoste-Borie AOC Pauillac 2nd wine of G-P-L

Château Lacoste-Borie is the second wine of Grand Puy Lacoste – one of the most reliable Fifth Growths in the Médoc. What this means: the same soils, the same signature, a more accessible price point. Pauillac in the classic way.

Grand Puy Lacoste cultivates its vineyards on the gravel terraces in the heart of Pauillac, where Cabernet Sauvignon finds its densest expressions. The estate's philosophy is conservative in the best sense – no changes in style based on trends, but a clear line across vintages.

In the glass, the Lacoste-Borie shows the typical Pauillac structure: dark cassis, cedar wood, a hint of pencil shavings, and black olive. The tannins are grainy and firm, the body full-bodied with noticeable depth. The finish is long, dry, and marked by a tart-mineral note that is characteristic of the great gravel sites of the Médoc.

Best served at 16–18 °C. Goes with leg of lamb with herbs de Provence, aged cheddar, or a classic entrecôte. Those who bring a little patience will be rewarded with more melt and complexity.
