“On the nose, the vibrant elegance of red fruits literally dances in the nostrils. This is followed by notes of white pepper and blooming lilac. Wonderfully balanced, fruity, and silky on the palate, with a saltier finish and grainy tannins. Not to mention excellent value for money. ” (Le Figaro 2022) - Delivery in a wooden case is available for orders of 6 bottles of this wine (depending on country and selected shipping method)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2021 guide): 4* Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
The estate boasts one of the best-located and most consistent terroirs in Pauillac, with significant potential from its old Cabernet Sauvignon vines, which give the wine its remarkable body and very noble spicy aromas. François-Xavier Borie manages it with wisdom, skill, and an evident commitment to Médoc classicism. The second wine, Lacoste-Borie, has clearly improved since 2014, but it will be produced in smaller quantities in the future as it will no longer include the young vines from Château Haut-Batailley.
Decanter
Wine rated (2022 guide) 91/100
About the wine:
Highly aromatic, it offers aromas of blackcurrant and black cherry, with hints of raspberry and other red berries. Juicy yet slightly creamier and chalky. This wine is quite dense without being heavy, but sufficiently concentrated, with a core of bright, intense fruit that carries through from start to finish. 2023–2036
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate
Rated wine (2022 guide) 90/100 (Excellent wine)
Estate rated "Recommended" (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate)
About the wine:
Lacoste-Borie 2019 is a wine of immense charm. Bursting from the glass with aromas of blackcurrant, licorice, sweet spices, loamy soil, and cigar wrapper, it is medium- to full-bodied, fleshy, and well-integrated, with ripe tannins, succulent acidity, and a round, generous profile. 2023–2043
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated estate (2021 guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)
About the estate:
This estate has had only two owners in 75 years: Raymond Dupin, from 1932 to 1978, followed by the Borie family, represented today by François-Xavier and his daughter Emeline. They manage this Fifth Growth estate, which features a homogeneous vineyard on the gravelly-clay plateau of Grand-Puy, with a significant proportion of old vines. Consistency has been flawless for a good decade now, and some older vintages still surprise. “GPL,” as they say in Bordeaux, produces a classic Pauillac—full-bodied and lively, with richly spiced tannins and a rather straightforward style. In great vintages, it acquires a magnificent smoothness that improves with age.
Vinous
Wine rated (2021 guide) 92/100
About the wine:
The 2019 Lacoste-Borie was impressive when I received a barrel sample last spring. Now bottled, it offers a lively, quite floral bouquet—almost reminiscent of a Margaux—that bursts from the glass, with aromas of raspberry, rooibos, and blackcurrant. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and well-concentrated, a bit spicier than I remember, and a bit sweeter on the finish, but with good length and admirable harmony. It should be enjoyable to drink after a few years. 2023–2040

Yves Beck
Wine rated (2021 guide) 92/100
About the wine:
Fruity and spicy character, with good intensity. Hints of black pepper, eucalyptus, and blackberries. A rich and juicy attack. The wine has body, depth, and a lovely fruity intensity on the finish. It will become more supple over the coming years. A flavorful wine, very typical of Pauillac, with good aging potential. 2024–2039
