2006 Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Friday, December 21, 2018 - Lightly fragrant. Not opulent, but you can sense the ripe fruit. Cassis with hints of mint, tar, tobacco. Very leafy after a few hours of decanting and maybe some pencil box aromas. On the palate this feels med/full bodied, dark fruit and leather with good acidity. The finish is actually very satisfying and long with hints of vanilla coming through. Fine tannins, almost imperceptible. Such a pair with a roast shoulder of lamb this evening. From half bottle.
