It was mentioned, in passing, that the big cruise ships are going to be stopping at Pauillac later this summer When they do the occupants will see the brand new buildings and facilities that are just being finished including a gravity-fed chai We suspect this will put Grand Puy Ducasse firmly on the map! Another wine that is on an upward path, the 2023 has a terrific nose with masses of black fruit and hints of tobacco behind, even a touch of polished leather The tannins are silky and there is power in the texture and body here, balanced and precise oak bring plenty to the party Should outlive many peers of the same quality135%
