Winemaker Notes
The character of our unique terroir and our technical team’s expertise have allowed this vintage to surpass itself. It boasts both phenolic richness and freshness in the fruit. This is a powerful, creamy, smooth wine. With a record 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, the Lagrange 2019 blend will go down in history. The expressive, aromatic nose opens with black cherry, blackcurrant, and licorice. In the palate, the entry is silky and plump with powerful, velvety tannins. This distinguished and elegant 2019 will take its place among our iconic vintages. The ageing potential is simply remarkable!
About Winery
Château Lagrange's story is one of enduring quality and resilience, stretching back to the Middle Ages. It began as the Noble House of Lagrange Monteil, a large estate with a church, hospital, and housing. Over the centuries, it saw ownership shifts, including the Branne family from Bordeaux, who expanded the vineyard significantly. The estate was also known for its innovative approaches, like Count Duchatel's introduction of a drainage system. While facing challenges in the 20th century, including periods of decline, Château Lagrange was purchased by Japanese liquor giant Suntory in 1983, ushering in a new era of investment and revitalized quality. Suntory's commitment led to significant renovations and improvements, ultimately leading to the successful revival of the estate and its wines.
