Chateau Lagrange St Julien 2022

Tasted en primeur, the Château Lagrange 2019 expresses the exceptional richness and great freshness of its fruit and the terroir of this iconic property of Saint-Julien. In this 2019 vintage, Cabernet Sauvignon truly dominates the blend, a first in the history of the domain. Intense and expressive, the aromatic bouquet reveals beautiful notes of black fruit, reminiscent of morello cherries and blackcurrant. On the palate, the attack reveals a full-bodied and fleshy texture, structured by tannins that combine power and velvety smoothness. Endowed with a rare elegance and stylistic signature, the Château Lagrange 2019 is certainly in line with the great vintages of the property.

In the Médoc, Château Lagrange is one of the iconic references of Saint-Julien. The property boasts ancient origins dating back to Gallo-Roman times, when the estate housed the "Villa Rustica". It was back then that the Order of the Templars first began producing wine at the property. Château Lagrange experienced a real golden age in the 18th century and earned the title of 3rd Classified Growth in the Official Classification of 1855. It was in 1983 that Château Lagrange was acquired by the Japanese group Suntory and its president Keizo Saji. Following a major renovation and investment project carried out by the dynamic new team, Château Lagrange has become one of the top producers of the Saint-Julien appellation.
