Lacoste-Borie

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2020

9.0

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose of black fruits with light wood, spices, coffee and chocolates.

Medium plus in body and elegant, with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, cooked plums, light cedar, earth, herbs, chocolates and black pepper.

Nice finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This 5 year old, second wine from this Fifth Growth Bordeaux winery is drinking very nicely now.

Well balanced with nice complexity. Spicy, rich and fruit forward.

Will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.

Good by itself or with food.

A blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 14% Cabernet Franc. Aged in (50% new) French oak barrels for 15 months.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

Medium ruby , slightly deeper than the Imperial , slightly brighter , more ruby rim . Quite deep and closed on the nose , more deeply fruited , blackberry , dark cherry , ripe red plum. This has more spice on the palate , with some herbal hints , blackberry , plum and black pepper . Good valume and a more juicy , fruit driven profile , quite firm tannins still and balanced acidity . Good length , with a darker fruited finish . Young still needs a bit more time, 2-5 years or so and will last well a further 10 . — 4 months ago

Gorgeous! Incredibly fresh with youthful vigor and classic Paulliac aromatic layers and a rich and concentrated palate with grippy tannins still! This one calls for a nice juicy steak! — 6 days ago
