Château Lagrange, a classified Third Growth estate in Saint-Julien, is celebrated for crafting wines that exude classic style, marked by pronounced tannins and impressive ageing potential. While the year 2006 did not rank among Bordeaux`s most exceptional vintages, it witnessed the creation of some remarkable wines, particularly from the region`s top-tier estates.
93 Robert Parker
Tasted at Bordeaux Index`s annual 10-Year On tasting in London. I awarded the 2006 Château Lagrange a very high score when I tasted it from barrel. It does nothing to dispel my optismism in bottle after ten years. It has a lively, quite vivacious bouquet with blackberry, briary, cedar and violet scents, almost Margaux-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied with a fine grip in the mouth. The acidity here is well judged, extremely well focused with impressive weight and structure on the finish, backed up by that tobacco-stained fruit. You cannot go wrong with Lagrange in this vintage. Tasted January 2016. - Neal Martin
91 Vinous
The 2006 Lagrange was picked from 18 September until 5 October. This feels reserved and a little dour on the nose compared to the previous vintage, dusky black fruit, briary and violets - more floral than the 2005. The palate is much better with fine grain tannins, good acidity, bright and focused with cedar and tobacco towards the vigorous finish. Whilst not quite as enthused as I was in its youth, this is still a commendable 2006 Saint-Julien that represents great value for money. Tasted at the Lagrange vertical at the estate.
