1990 Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste
Description
When I first tasted the 1989 Grand-Puy-Lacoste in this blind tasting I thought it possessed a Graves-like tobacco/mineral character. In contrast to the blockbuster, full-blown, massive wines produced by this estate in 1990 and 1982, the medium-weight 1989 is elegant, spicy, evolved, and already revealing plenty of cedar and cassis fruit. A delicious, generously-endowed, low acid wine, it will offer mature drinking now and over the next 12-15 years.

Tasting note
1990年的拉古斯城堡酒是波亞克優雅的典範。這款酒展現了強勁而飽滿的體格，帶有一種質樸的魅力，既迷人又複雜。口感上，成熟的黑醋栗、煙草葉和雪茄盒交織著綠葉、辛辣草本和明亮、清脆的紅色水果的豐富層次。醒酒約一小時後，這款酒美妙地展開，顯露出它的層次。無論是搭配烤羊排或威靈頓牛排等強烈口味的菜餚，這款酒都能提升任何用餐體驗。
The 1990 Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste is a testament to the classic elegance of Pauillac. This wine exudes a powerful and full-bodied profile, with a rustic charm that is both inviting and complex. The palate is graced with a tapestry of flavors, including ripe currants, tobacco leaf, and cigar box, intertwined with green leafy notes, spicy herbs, and bright, crisp red fruits. With about an hour of decanting, this wine opens up beautifully, revealing its layered nuances. Perfectly paired with robust dishes such as grilled lamb chops or beef Wellington, this wine is sure to elevate any dining experience.
