Again this is totally drinkable, with graphite notes and layers of juicy damson and black cherry fruits playing off the silky tannins. This perhaps gives a clue as to why the Bordelais were stubborn on their pricing of the 2007s. Genuinely good drinking today, and should be enjoyed.

Tasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Grand-Puy-Lacoste has a straight-down-the-line, no frills, pencil lead-infused, black-fruited bouquet with wonderful definition and commendable intensity for the vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with a surprisingly lithe and sensual opening, more red fruit than other vintages of Grand Puy Lacoste with satisfying precision and mineralité on the finish. This is excellent. Tasted February 2017. Drink date: 2018 - 2032.
