Lacoste Borie 2017 Pauillac, 2nd wine of Ch. Grand Puy Lacoste

The always excellent second wine of Ch Grand Puy Lacoste. Medium to deep garnet-purple coloured, the 2017 Lacoste-Borie gives up notes of warm cassis, Morello cherries and wild blueberries with hints of pencil shavings and bay leaves. Medium-bodied, the palate has a lively line and well-played, soft tannins with an herbal lift on the finish.
