Winemaker and vineyard : Located on two Günzian gravelly rises, one of which is the highest point of the appellation, the estate of Château Lagrange extends over 118 hectares in one piece. 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot represent our grape variety, divided into more than 100 individual plots. Our vines are on average 40 years old and the oldest dates from 1952. 11 hectares are also dedicated to the production of white wine, i.e. 80% Sauvignon blanc, 10% Sauvignon gris and 10% Sémillon. 17 different soils and subsoils have been identified, thus allowing the grape varieties and rootstocks to be adapted to the terroirs, and to push the approach of a tailor-made viticulture, plot by plot, in order to best express its character.
Tasting : Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2009 Lagrange rolls out of the glass with beautiful redcurrant jelly, warm blackcurrants and blueberry preserves notions plus hints of fallen leaves, camphor and pencil lead. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with red and black fruit preserves and lively herbal sparks, with a firm grainy backbone and great freshness on the finish. robertparker.com (03.14.2019)
Service : Serve at room temperature (16-18°C), to accompany a rack of lamb in a salt crust.
