Château Grand-Puy Ducasse 2023

The 2023 Grand-Puy Ducasse is fabulous. In fact, the 2023 is one of the best recent vintages I have tasted here. A wine of grandeur and sweeping intensity, this Grand-Puy Ducasse is seriously impressive. Silky tannins enshroud a huge core of dark fruit. Hints of graphite, dried flowers, mint and spice appear later, adding shades of complexity. It’s a magnificent effort by the team led by Technical Director Anne Le Naour. Tasted two times. Drinking window: 2030-2048. (Antonio Galloni,vinous.com)
