Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste 2016 image

Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste 2016

Bordeaux, France

Building upon the success achieved in 2015, this vintage shows yet more detail and class. Charming with an attractive nose of cassis, blackcurrant and dark fruit. It’s suave and generous on the palate, with a rich fleshy texture.

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste 2016 is a classic Pauillac from a Fifth Growth estate with a reputation for outperforming its classification. Situated on a gravel-rich plateau, the estate’s vineyards produce structured, age-worthy wines with Cabernet Sauvignon at the core. The 2016 vintage is considered one of the greatest in recent Bordeaux history, offering remarkable balance, freshness, and depth.

Aromas of cassis, cedar, graphite, and tobacco leaf. The palate is powerful yet refined, showing blackcurrant, dark cherry, pencil shavings, and spice, with firm tannins and a long, focused finish.

Contains sulphites.

  • Roast beef, ribeye steak, duck confit, mushroom Wellington, aged Comté

Although classified as a Fifth Growth in 1855, Grand-Puy-Lacoste has long punched above its weight—particularly in strong vintages like 2016, which combine power with precision.

Looking for something similar?

  • Chateau Pichon Lalande 2010 - from £225.00
    Less opulent than the 2009 but with greater freshness and firmer, more tannic finish despite the higher proportion of merlot this year. Rich and unctuous with lovely, juicy texture, another fantastic, age worthy expression of Pauillac!
  • Ch Grand Puy Lacoste 19 - from £125.00
  • Chateau Haut Brion 2015 - from £650.00
    The 2015 Château Haut-Brion is a deeply expressive Bordeaux from Pessac-Léognan. It reveals aromas of ripe black fruits, spices, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, it offers a rich, full-bodied experience with flavors of dark plum, blackberry, and hints of mocha and tobacco. The wine is balanced by fine tannins and a long, persistent finish, showcasing its potential for aging.
