Wine Tasting : French ~~~


A Lovely Wine Tasting Luncheon with good friends ~~

Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste, Pauillac
Parker: 
The brilliant 2005 Grand-Puy-Lacoste exhibits classic Pauillac aromas and flavors of creme de cassis along with stony/floral notes. Proprietor Xavier Borie has created a wine that should rival the brilliant 1982, 1990, 1996, and 2000. Full-bodied with sweet tannin and superb length (a 40+ second finish), the purity of this beauty’s black currant fruit is something to behold. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2030
Score: 95
