Very close to the great wine but with just a little less ageing potential, this second label is a very nice success reconciling elegance and power.
DECANTER 91 POINTS - "This is the second wine from St-Julien third growth Château Lagrange, a blend of half Cabernet Sauvignon, with the remainder Merlot and (a small amount of) Petit Verdot. The 2016 vintage was very successful, producing some exceptional wines and this one has great appeal, quite soft in character but with seductively aromatic blackcurrant fruit and a floral scent. You also get the added interest that comes in a wine with some bottle age like this – without having to cellar it yourself."
