Château Lagrange
A magnificent property in the Saint-Julien appellation, Château Lagrange now occupies an almost intimate place in the hearts of wine enthusiasts. Although its history dates back to the 17th century, it wasn't until 1796 that Château Lagrange underwent tremendous expansion under the impetus of its owner Jean-Valère Cabarrus, the finance minister of Napoléon I in Spain.
The Château Lagrange will obtain the rank of Third Grand Cru Classé in the 1855 classification for the Paris Universal Exhibition.
The Japanese Suntory group will acquire the Domaine in 1983, and spectacular technical renovations will be undertaken in the winery and vineyard to restore Lagrange's reputation.
Situated on two gravelly hilltops, the vineyard of Château Lagrange covers 118 hectares of vines, of which 68% are Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot. The wines are aged for 18 to 20 months in French oak barrels, 60% of which are new.
The estate produces a Second wine, Fiefs de Lagrange, as well as a third wine in Haut-Médoc, Pagus de Lagrange.
The vineyard also boasts 11 hectares of white grape varieties for the production of their white wine Sec, les Arums de Lagrange, of which 80% is Sauvignon blanc, 10% Sémillon and 10% Sauvignon gris.
The wines of Château Lagrange are renowned for their elegance and complexity, where the finesse of the tannins envelop a fully fruity palate.
