Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste Pauillac (Grand Cru Classé) 2019 (750ml) Cremant de Limoux96 98 Vinous Review Date: 05 2023 The 2022 Grand Puy Lacoste was picked from 7 to 23 September and contains more Merlot due to the high quality of the fruit, matured in 75% new oak. There is 14. 2% alcohol. Therefore, this lends this GPL a little more precocity and sensuality compared to other vintages, not cut from the same "classical" cloth as, say, the 2019 or 2020.

and baking spices arecomplemented by flinty minerality and a touch of nutmeg

Excellent freshness

It hos a fruily and floral "nose" with shades of broom and quince and a slight "toasted" flavour with mellow ofter tones
