Product details
As in the last two vintages, Château Lagrange 2009 is highly marked by Cabernet Sauvignon. The blend for Château Lagrange is made from 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot. The blend is very similar to the vintage 2000 (CS: 76%; M: 24%). We no longer need the tannins brought by the Petit-Verdot. These can be less elegant, and consequently reduce the expression of finesse in the wine, a typical quality of a great Saint-Julien.
Lots of blackberry, blackcurrant, and licorice on the nose, powerful and racy tannins like we are expecting at SaintJulien. Magnificent richness of texture, harmonious with cedar and truffles, a perfect balance for this wine which has one of the largest windows of tasting ever!
