Informations
The term Grand-Puy refers to its topography and the family name Lacoste marks its link with the owner at the time of classification in 1855. Its single-section terroir extends over the hilly heights of Pauillac. Several families succeeded one another at its head, including Raymond Dupin who ceded the property to the Borie family in 1978. François- Xavier Borie is the owner and manager.
