The Grand Puy Lacoste Dinner in the Napoleon Cellar, 2nd November 2012

We are thrilled and excited to welcome back Ch. Grand-Puy-Lacoste to Berrys’ Wine Events calendar, this time for a Napoleon Cellar Dinner. As well as tasting five vintages, there will be a chance to taste an additional two vintages from Château Haut-Batailley. The properties are both under the ownership of François-Xavier Borie, situated in the commune of Pauillac and were classified as 5ème Cru Classé in the 1855 Médoc Classification. Ch. Grand-Puy- Lacoste has for many years been consistently outperforming its classification, with its huge appeal its sheer elegance combined with a marvellous cigar box perfume. Rich in blackcurrant fruit with a velvety power, it is the epitome of topclass Pauillac. Join us for a stellar line-up of vintages at what will be one of the most exciting dinners of the season.
