Description

A big, bruising '89. Superdark, inky color. Intense blackberry and cherry character and hints of black licorice. Full-bodied, very velvety, with loads of tannins and an earth, berry and dark chocolate aftertaste. Seriously good for Grand-Puy-Ducasse.--1989 Bordeaux horizontal. Best after 2004. - WS91

The Winery

The history of Grand-Puy-Lacoste is fascinating in many ways. It is a family saga going back to the 16th century. The name Grand-Puy, already mentioned in documents from the Middle Ages, comes from the ancient term "puy" which means "hillock, small height". True to its name, the vineyard sits on outcrops with a terroir similar to that of the Médoc's first growths. Since the 16th century the property was passed down from generation to generation, until the current family, the Borie's, bought the property in the 1920s.
