Château Lagrange is St-Julien Third Growth classified estate renowned for consistently producing classically styled, tannic and powerful wines, with excellent potential longevity. The 2016 is, once again, a high point in a run of particularly high-quality releases from recent years. A blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot, it is concentrated, layered and long. Typically a wine that requires a few years cellaring, this should be superb from 2025 onwards.

Vinous
The 2016 Lagrange has a boisterous, almost gregarious bouquet featuring layers of blackberry, boysenberry, violets and cassis scents that storm from the glass. Fortunately, it retains very good precision and delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and a fine bead of acidity. Fresh in the mouth, leading to a minerally finish; a pinch of cracked black pepper lingers on the aftertaste. Superb. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting. Neal Martin1st August 2020
