2018 Lagrange (St-Julien)

67% Cabernet Sauvignon/28% Merlot/5% Petit Verdot. Harvest dates Merlot September 20-2 October, Cabernet Sauvignon October 1-13, Petit Verdot October 5-9. An opulent, generous style - fulsome aromas of blackcherry and cassis, tinged with pencil shavings. It seems very typically St-Julien. Despite the warm vintage and the generosity of style, it nevertheless manages to keep a fair amount of freshness, a cool touch towards the end, and should age very nicely. (NT 30/04/19)

Media Reviews

Antonio Galloni

The 2018 Lagrange is charming and gracious. Sweet, lifted aromatics and mid-weight structure give the 2018 tons of immediacy. Bright red berries, blood orange, mint, spice, rose petal and cedar build with time in the glass. Polished, silky tannins grace the beautifully persistent finish. Best of all, the 2018 will be ready to go with only minimal cellaring. 94 points
