Description

Château Lagrange is one of the most prominent Grand Cru Classé wineries from Saint-Julien. Located entirely within the Saint-Julien appellation, the vineyard extends in a single block over two north-south rises of Gunzian gravel soil. In parts large and coarse and in others finer, this gravel is combined with sand or iron-rich clay, depending on the plot. With a height of 24 meters, the center of the domain marks the highest point of Saint-Julien. The estate covers 182 hectares (450 acres), of which 118 hectares (292 acres) are under vines. Most plots have a drainage system.

The 2019 Les Arums de Lagrange, the white cuvée from the Saint-Julien estate, offers attractive scents of lime and yellow flowers, with a hint of almond in the background. The palette is nicely balanced with a hint of lemongrass at the first sip. Moderate in weight, with subtle tropical notes that emerge on the aftertaste. The 2019 white Lagrange is a blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Sémillon

The Japanese group, Suntory, acquired the domain in 1983. Marcel Ducasse was then recruited together with Kenji Suzuta to carry out the complete restructuring of the vineyard and a spectacular renovation of the entire estate. This first step was to mark the rebirth of Chateau Lagrange. After twenty years of dedicated work, as well as human and technical investments, Lagrange is once again one of the top Grand Cru Classé , focusing over the last twenty years on the production of refined, elegant and expressive wines, in the best Saint-Julien style but also with production methods that substantially reduce the ecological impact.
