Owned by the Suntory Group since 1983, Château Lagrange, Third Classified Growth in the 1855 classification, nestles in the heart of the renowned Saint-Julien appellation. The vineyard stretches over two Gunzian gravel slopes where the highest point of Saint-Julien thrones on the beautiful estate.

Over 35 years ago, our vineyard was re-planted and re-structured, resulting in today’s well balanced and distinguished wines, honed by the magic of time. Expressing the best of each terroir: with this objective in mind, we re-organized the vinification cellar with one stainless steel vat adapted to each and every plot in the vineyard.

Grape Blend: 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 6% Petit Verdot

The 2014 Lagrange has indeed pulled its socks up, as I opined when I tasted the wine from barrel. Now in bottle, it has a conservative, tertiary nose with introverted black fruit mixed with cedar and sandalwood aromas. It feels tight at the moment but there is satisfying focus here. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin on the entry, though the Merlot component becomes more prominent towards the finish and offers a lovely fleshy, poised finish with a dab of black pepper on the aftertaste. Modest but stylish Lagrange, which is exactly what you expect.
