2021 Lacoste Borie, Pauillac, Bordeaux

The 2021 Lacoste-Borie has a light, slightly tertiary bouquet of brambly red fruit, freshly rolled tobacco and a touch of potpourri. The palate is medium-bodied with quite firm tannins on the entry, moderate weight and a cedar-infused finish. Classic Bordeaux that will need just two or three years in bottle.Drink 2024 - 2034Neal Martin, Vinous.com.com, (May 2022)

The 2021 Lacoste-Borie is a supple, charming wine, bursting with aromas of sweet cherries, berries, licorice and spices. Medium-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with melting tannins and a generous core of fruit, it will drink well on release. It's a blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon, 36% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc.William Kelley, Wine Advocate (Apr 2022)

Perfumed and nicely polished second wine of Grand-Puy-Lacoste with pretty sandalwood, blackberry and currant notes. Some fresh herbs and mocha, too. Nicely framed with fleshy tannins. 56% cabernet sauvignon, 36% merlot and 8% cabernet franc.james_suckling, jamessuckling_com (May 2022)

Juicy but restrained slate-textured tannins holding together blackcurrant and black cherry fruits. This has high acidities that make things are a little abrupt on the finish but this has a ton of Pauillac character, 40hl/h yield (35hl/h yield after selection).Drink 2025 - 2036jane_anson_mw, janeanson_com (May 2022)
