Weinwisser 18/20 Punkte
Extrem dunkles Purpur mit satter Mitte und violettem Rand. Konzentrierte Nase mit schwarzbeeriger Frucht und floralen Noten, dahinter schwarze Johannisbeere. Sehr dicht, eine schöne Eleganz und Frische zeigend, endet im langen Finale mit viel Brombeere und schwarzen Johannisbeeren. Seit letztem Jahr auf der Überholspur – well done, Matthieu!

The best wine from this château in many years! A huge, dramatic, blackcurrant and wild-blackberry nose and the first impression on the palate is every bit as intense. Nice acidity lifts this massive structure and keeps the imposing finish so fresh. Drink or hold.

The 2016 Lagrange has a tightly knit, focused bouquet of intense blackberry, briar and cedar aromas. This is impressive, and it gains intensity with aeration. The medium-bodied palate delivers grainy tannin, a fine bead of acidity and a vivacious, spicy, almost peppery finish. One of the most powerful Lagrange that I have tasted. A Saint-Julien that is consistently underrated, this 2016 will give a great deal of pleasure over the next 30-plus years.
Gereift in Barriques zu 50% neu. 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot und 6% Petit Verdot.
