Tasting note |
Tasted blind at Bordeaux Index’s 10-Year On horizontal. The Lagrange ’01 is your quintessential Saint Julien wine with blackberry, cedar, cigar box and a touch of smoke. Very focused with great penetration. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins, superb balanced with a superb cedar and tobacco tinged finish supported by ample red fruits. Great length, just a wine you want to drink (although it should keep for another decade.) Tasted March 2011. By Neal Martin @ Wine Advocate, May 2011.
Lots of floral, berry and raspberry character on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a fresh finish. Lovely wine. Round and refined. *Smart Buys* By James Suckling @ Wine Spectator, Mar 2004. |
