Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste, Pauillac, 2000, 75cl 100RP Château Poujeaux 2016 pairs particularlyThe 2000 Chteau Grand Puy Lacoste is an exceptional wine from Xavier Borie. It has a brilliant nose of blackberry, crushed stone, graphite and cedar. Putting it to one side for ten to 15 minutes reveals subtle mint like aromas that whisk you straight to Pauillac. The palate is smooth and silky, cloaking the tannic frame of this GPL so that you barely notice it. But that will stand it in good stead for the long term, the cornerstone of all great wines
