Other Reviews….

The greatest Grand Puy Lacoste since the 2005, 2000 and 1990, the fabulous 2010 reveals all the hallmarks of this estate. It boasts a dense purple color along with classic notes of creme de cassis, blueberries, blackberries, crushed rocks and flowers, sweet tannin and an exceptionally full-bodied and multilayered mouthfeel as well as a boatload of tannin. Cellar it for a decade and drink it over the following three decades. Proprietor Xavier Borie's 2010 recalls the 2005.
Score: 93-96
Robert Parker Wine Advocate # 194 May 2011

Lovely aromas already, with currants and blackberries. Full body, with very fine yet dense tannins and a rich finish. Reserved and sophisticated.
Score: 95-96
