B‑21 normally has excellent service. The shipments apparently got a little behind for the holidays in the year 2024. There were some confusion in three of my orders, but eventually this was cleared up after the new year.

2020 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste (750ml)

Cabernet Sauvignon from Pauillac, Bordeaux, France

B-21 Top Recommendation

Described by Inside Bordeaux’s Jane Anson as “a classic example of why we love great Pauillac,” these traditionally styled selections from Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste balance rich dark fruit on a precise backbone of acidity with lush, layered tannins, some just hitting their stride and all with decades of enjoyment ahead of them, delivered in perfect provenance at an unbeatable value.

Purchased by Jean-Eugene Borie in 1978 and restored by his son Francois-Xavier over the following decades, the 58-hectare vineyard of Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste is situated in a single large block on the Pauillac hill, the steep terrain rising up to 20 meters and planted mostly to Cabernet Sauvignon in deep gravel soils that extend eight meters underground on the Left Bank of the Gironde. Crafted by winemaker Francois-Xavier with the help of his daughter Emeline, the Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated blend is aged in mostly new French oak for 16 to 18 months, producing a Grand Vin that is “immediately charming and structurally polished” with “classic Cabernet-driven Pauillac character” according to the Wine Advocate’s William Kelley. At a tasting in 2021, Jane Anson of Inside Bordeaux noted the 97 pt. 2005 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste is “just starting to really live up to expectations” and “will easily stay in this delightful holding pattern for the next few decades” while the “unmistakably Pauillac” 96 pt. 2009 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste is “utterly gorgeous right now” and “still young," counting it among the estate’s best vintages. Calling the 2015 vintage one not to be missed, Antonio Galloni of Vinous describes the 96 pt. 2015 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste as bringing together “the ripeness of the vintage and the classic elegance of Pauillac in stunning style,” while the 97 pt. 2016 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste is “sumptuous, vivid and incredibly detailed” and a highlight of the vintage poised to “enjoy a long life,” available in both 750 ml. and magnum. Jeb Dunnuck calls the 96 pt. 2018 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste “a beautiful Pauillac” with “terrific balance, remarkable purity of fruit, and outstanding length” and the Wine Independent’s Lisa Perrotti-Brown describes the 97 pt. 2019 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste “an exercise in elegance, with lovely freshness and fine-grained tannins.” Ranked #18 on the Wine Spectator’s Top 100 of 2023, James Suckling wrote the full-bodied 96 pt. 2020 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste “builds on the palate in a fantastic way” while the Wine Advocate’s William Kelley notes “its supple, charming style belies considerable aging potential.”

Transparently reflecting its exceptional Left Bank terroir, Bordeaux expert Jane Anson describes the exceptional Grand Cru of Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste as “the marriage of Cabernet Sauvignon, Gironde Estuary breezes, and the gravels of the appellation,” these top vintages delivering outstanding value for Pauillac lovers and collectors to savor over the next decades.

The 2020 Grand-Puy-Lacoste is every bit as captivating from bottle as it was from barrel. Rich and explosive to the core, the 2020 possesses tremendous energy and nuance right out of the gate. Bright acids run through a core of ripe red plum fruit, blood orange, cedar and pipe tobacco. The 2020 is an absolute stunner.

96 points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous (Feb 2023)

A tightly coiled Pauillac, with a blitz of iron and savory notes wrapped around a core of cassis, damson plum and black cherry. Sleek and tightly focused, with the iron note leaving a mouthwatering echo. Plenty tight through the finish, so patience is required. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Best from 2028 through 2042. 10,000 cases made.

#18 - Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2023

Milk chocolate, blackcurrants, some cinnamon ,floral spice notes, cedar, touch of liquorice. Smooth and supple, lovely energy and vibrancy here, really quite high-toned and in focus, lovely precision to the details here - the tannins are firm, slightly coarse and grainy but do so well to give the structure in the mouth - really give the frame while the flavour and the acidity does the talking. I like the combination of fruit and texture and acidity, feels serious while maintaining energy, focus and drive. Lovely lightness of touch, flows along the palate, I also love the red fruit aspects - strawberry, red cherry, bright, seering, really so joyful here with acidity that lasts and lasts. But a lovely crunch and bite to the tannins overall and lovely fresh ending. Long. wide, open, generous and friendly. Finessed and refined. True signature here where they don’t push too hard, not too heavy on the extraction.

96 points, Georgina Hindle, Decanter (Jan 2023)

The 2020 Grand-Puy-Lacoste is excellent, offering up aromas of cassis and plums mingled with pencil shavings, violets and loamy soil framed by a touch of creamy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, pure and fleshy, with lively acids, powdery tannins and good depth at the core, its supple, charming style belies considerable aging potential. It's a blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon and 24% Merlot.
