Les Fiefs de Lagrange Saint-Julien Second Vin Chateau Lagrange 2017 - Original wooden case of 6 bottles

Les Fiefs de Lagrange 2017 is a great red wine from the Médoc in Bordeaux and the second wine of Château Lagrange, 3rd Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Julien.

It offers an intense nose with aromas of blackcurrant, cherry and raspberry, and on the palate a very elegant and surprisingly fresh substance with silky tannins. It can be kept in the cellar until about 2030-2032.

2017 was an early vintage with a fairly dry spring leading to a heavy frost at the end of April, with flowering going perfectly afterwards. This climatic episode makes the 2017 vintage one of the lowest in volume of Château Lagrange. The summer was hot and dry and the selection of grapes in the plots was particularly rigorous.

Les Fiefs de Lagrange is made from vines that are on average 35 years old and are planted on fine gravel soils for Cabernet Sauvignon and clay for some Merlots. The blend is composed of 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 9% Petit Verdot. This wine is treated with the same care as the great wine of Château Lagrange with a search for maturity and concentration in the vineyard, a plot-by-plot vinification and an ageing adapted to its tannic structure.
