This is a very good vintage with quality underlined by cabernets sauvignons of exceptional nobility.
The 2009 Grand-Puy-Lacoste presents a very deep, dark red color. The “bouquet” reveals aromas of complex fruits and hints of ripe blackcurrant. The attack on the palate is precise, very dense, and follows with an exceptional velvety richness. The tannins are suave and elegant. It shows a beautiful complexity, combining smoothness and purity. A very well-balanced wine with a spectacular length. In one word, a Grand Puy Lacoste with the promise of a bright future!
