CHÂTEAU GRAND PUY LACOSTE
Frequently cited as punching above its weight in the classification stakes, this 5eme Cru classe has a complicated history, not unusual given the inheritance laws in France. After 1855 the estate changed hands between disinterested and incompetent parties until the arrival of the Borie family in 1978, of Ducru Beaucaillou fame.
