Gravelly hilltop parcels — the "puy" in Grand-Puy-Lacoste literally means small height in medieval French — give this Pauillac Fifth Growth its edge: deep Günzian gravel over clay-limestone locks in drainage and heat retention that Cabernet Sauvignon needs to ripen fully on the Left Bank. Lacoste-Borie is the second wine, drawing fruit from the same estate blocks managed by François-Xavier Borie and his daughter Emeline under the same viticultural standards applied to the Grand Vin. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc delivers black currant, cassis, cedar, and dark plum, with pencil shavings and tobacco on the finish, framed by firm tannins and bright acidity.
