Tasted at the château, the 1998 Grand-Puy-Lacoste has really developed in commendable fashion in recent years. It had a striking bouquet with intense blackberry, wild strawberry and graphite scents, a vivacious bouquet that is less austere than other vintages. The palate is very well balanced with a smooth texture. Like the aromatics, I feel this is more approachable because its backbone is not as "stiff". The salinity on the finish tempts you back for another sip of this hidden gem of late-nineties Bordeaux. Tasted July 2016.

The 1998 Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste was made from 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Merlot brought up in barrel. It’s showing nicely today and has a regal bouquet of black fruits, leafy herbs, dried flowers, and cigar wrapper. Medium-bodied, beautifully balanced, and elegant, it’s a classic, textbook Pauillac that’s right in the middle of its prime drinking window.
