About this Item

Grand Puy-Lacoste
Pauillac, 1982
1 (1 x 1) 750ml

Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste is a wine estate situated on a low hill above the village of Bages in the Pauillac region of the Médoc. Classified as a fifth growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification, the Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant grand vin is known for its velvety texture and cigar box and cassis aromas.

Critics Ratings

‘This is a tour de force, and one of the all-time great Grand-Puy-Lacostes ever produced, as I hope the 2000 and 2005 will become. This is an inky/purple, beefy, broad, super-rich Pauillac revealing classic crème de cassis notes intermixed with hints of spring flowers and crushed rocks. Full-bodied with sweet tannin, shocking concentration, and layers of fruit, this irresistible 1982 is still an adolescent in terms of its evolution. Anticipated maturity: now-2035.’ - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 96/100 (Jul 2009)

‘Rich, fully evolved fruit. But with a minerally finish too. Round and gorgeous. Complex. I wish I hadn't long ago drunk all 12 bottles of the case I bought en primeur. This is a 1982 over-performer.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18.5/20 (Jun 2012)
