Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

The Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste stands guard at the entrance to the prestigious Pauillac appellation. Its name refers to its privileged location on the heights of the appellation, atop a Puy, the Lacoste family being its owners in 1855 when it attained the title of Fifth Grand Cru Classé in the famous classification of Médoc wines for the Paris Universal Exhibition.

In 1978, Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste became part of the Borie family. Thanks to numerous technical renovations, the wines today reflect the full potential of the terroir from which they come.

The vineyard of Domaine is located on deep gravelly hilltops, and covers 62 hectares of vines, planted with 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. The wines are aged for 16 to 18 months in French oak barrels, 75% of which are new.

Lacoste-Borie is the estate's Second wine, produced with young vines and the same care as its elder brother.

The Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste produces wines in the image of Pauillac, they are powerful but controlled, with elegant tannins and offer beautiful aromatic depth.

Description Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste - Caisse Variation 2024.

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste unveils an exceptional edition to coincide with the Primeurs release of its 2024 vintage: Caisse Variation.

Designed for demanding connoisseurs and collectors, this creation Rare boldly reinterprets the traditional 12-bottle case. It brings together a double magnum, two magnums and four bottles, offering a unique exploration of the evolution of wine through emblematic formats.

This exclusive proposal pays tribute to the timeless elegance of Grand-Puy-Lacoste and its roots in the historic terroir of Pauillac. Cru Classé in 1855, Domaine has remained in the hands of the same family ever since, preserving the integrity of a single vineyard, a guarantee of regularity and authenticity.

Designed for wine aesthetes, Caisse Variation embodies the art of ageing, the pleasure of tasting and the celebration of great moments. In addition, each box includes an invitation for four people to a private visit and exclusive tasting at Château - a privileged immersion in the world of a great Médoc name.


"The wine has a beautiful garnet-red color with brilliant, dark reflections. In the glass, it expresses a fine, gourmand nose with notes of black fruit, cedar and light tobacco. On the palate, the attack is refined and greedy, followed by relatively substantial tannins that will need several years of cellaring to develop a proper patina. The aromatic palette is rich and the finish has great length." - Marie, Oenologist Premium Grands Crus

Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2024 is marked by a very high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon (78%), which once again demonstrates the identity of the terroir and the finesse of its expression. This 2024 vintage embodies the elegance of the vintage, with beautifully ripe fruit and remarkable freshness. Its garnet-red color precedes an expressive nose of ripe black fruits accompanied by subtle notes of violets. On the palate, the attack is full and enveloping, with a silky texture and fine, powdery tannins. The whole offers a harmonious balance between structure, velvetiness and brilliance. In keeping with the estate's style, this refined wine will be accessible in its youth, but has excellent ageing potential.

Average age of vines: 40 years
Harvest dates: September 25 to October 08, 2024
Aging: French oak barrels (fine grain), 70% new.

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
