Reviews

James Suckling 93

This is a classic St.-Julien with red fruit and delicate herbs on the nose. The oak is quite discreet both there and on the mid-weight body. Then the serious but rather elegant dry tannins come through on the long finish.

Wine Advocate 92

he 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.

Wine Spectator 89

A fruitcake note leads the way, followed by warm plum sauce, crushed blackberry and cassis details. A firm graphite edge holds the finish, leaving a taut feel in the end.

Technical Details

Ageing

Blending in January. Maturation for 21 months. 60 % of new oak barrels. Fining in barrel with fresh egg whites. Final blending before bottling.

Tasting notes

The color is dark with purple hues. Intense fruity aromas such as black cherry, blackcurrant and raspberry mingle with fine woody notes. Very delicate and elegant, the attack is supple and fleshy with a long finish carried by the bold Cabernet Sauvignon. A wine that is complete, complex and harmonious.

Vinification

Plot by plot and intra plot vinification. 102 thermoregulated stainless steel vats for 103 vine plots. Variable capacity of the vats : 36 to 220 hl. Selection of batch conducted according to the varietal, age of vines, terroir and grapes maturity. Traditional vinification at 26-28C during 18 to 25 days. Moderate pumping over every day, or pigeage or delestage. Malolactic fermentation through co inoculation.
