*New release from one of Pauillac’s most popular properties*
*Same score as Lafite and Mouton Rothschild from Neal Martin*
*Will be astonishing comparative value*
Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste has been knocking on the door of the First Growths for the last few years and, with a score from Neal Martin that places it alongside fellow Pauillacs Lafite and Mouton Rothschild, the 2022 continues that run of form. It is a First Growth quality superstar and a very strong buy indeed.
A classic expression of the Medoc’s most revered appellation, Grand Puy Lacoste always has a combination of quality, value and longevity that makes it a mainstay of many a Bordeaux collection. As Jane Anson says in Inside Bordeaux, it delivers a “complex, juicy, dark-fruited mouthful of all that is great about the appellation”
The 2022 is stunning, and for Martin, “Silky smooth in texture, so much so that it belies that backbone underneath” and is “a Pauillac endowed with huge potential”. His 96-98 score matches Lafite and Mouton Rothschild, a remarkable achievement that makes it one of the campaign’s superstar buys.

The 2022 Grand Puy Lacoste was picked from 7 to 23 September and contains more Merlot due to the high quality of the fruit, matured in 75% new oak. There is 14.2% alcohol. Therefore, this lends this GPL a little more precocity and sensuality compared to other vintages, not cut from the same “classical” cloth as, say, the 2019 or 2020. Underlying this velvety veneer are enticing traits of freshly-rolled tobacco and undergrowth. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-sculpted tannins. Silky smooth in texture, so much so that it belies that backbone underneath. There is a peacock’s tail of mineral-rich, quite peppery black fruit on the finish, completing a Pauillac endowed with huge potential.
