Parker - Wine Advocate Lisa Perrotti-Brown (94+ Punkte)
The deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Grand-Puy-Lacoste gives up pure kirsch and red and black currants with violets and baking spices. Medium-bodied, firm and grainy, it's very expressive with good concentration and length.
Wine Spectator (94-97 Punkte)
Ripe, but sleek and very focused, featuring racy iron and savory notes coursing alongside the core of black currant and black cherry fruit. The fresh finish keeps everything in lockstep. Well-built.

79 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 21 % Merlot, 45 hl/ha) Frisches, elegantes, komplexes, tiefgründiges Bouquet, schwarze Beeren, Cassis, Korinthen, Zedern, Trüffel, Minze, fein Lakritze. Ausgewogener, dichtverwobener, vielschichtiger Gaumen mit dichter, dunkler Frucht, sehr viel feinem Tannin, komprimierter Aromatik, samtener, fein muskulöser Struktur, sehr langer, frischer Abgang mit vielen Rückaromen.
Vinous Antonio Galloni (93-96 Punkte)
One of the successes of the vintage, the Grand-Puy-Lacoste is fabulous. Racy, forward and incredibly inviting, the 2016 makes a strong first impression and then never lets up. Sweet red cherry, blood orange, white pepper and floral notes give the wine its brightness and aromatic nuance. Deep, fleshy and utterly exquisite on the palate, yet light on its feet, the 2016 exudes finesse. The flavors are remarkably vivid, but in the end, it is the wine's sublime balance that places it among the highlights of the vintage. Don't miss it!
