2000 Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

Saturday, March 23, 2024 - 375ml PnP into an extra large Burgundy Grand Cru glass. Not unexpected from first sip, no time in glass, thin, lean, heavy eucalyptus (which even though I am a big Bordeaux fan I am adverse when it’s prominent) some red and black crunchy fruits. Medium + acidity.

30 minutes later a bit more fruit but a bit more sour.

1hr in the eucalyptus better integrates.

2hr much more integrated wine but still far below my enjoyment level.a little sweeter fruit.

Still very young, I will hold for a few more years before trying again… and that from a 375. If 750 would hold another 5-10 years.

87/88 for now with 2-3 points of upside potential.
