Château Lagrange 2015

“One of the furthest west of the Saint-Julien estates, this property has been greatly improved with investment from Japanese owner Suntory. The wine from 2015 is dense and impressively concentrated, perfumed black-currant fruits working well with the crisp acidity and solid structure. Drink from 2025.” – 95/100, Wine Enthusiast

3ᵉ Grand Cru Classé – 1855, St-Julien Appellation | Range | Château Lagrange

Château Lagrange’s vineyard stretches over two Gunzian gravel slopes where the highest point of Saint-Julien thrones on the beautiful estate.

Harmony is the key word for each and every man and woman at the Château. We never force Mother Nature, we merely guide her. Each year, the work in the vineyard, where attention to detail and age-old traditions are combined, gives birth to a unique, elegant, powerful wine able to age well over time.

Over 35 years ago, our vineyard was re-planted and re-structured, resulting in today’s well balanced and distinguished wines, honed by the magic of time.

Expressing the best of each terroir: with this objective in mind, we re-organized the vinification cellar with one stainless steel vat adapted to each and every plot in the vineyard.

Let Time fulfil its mission. A benevolent eye is kept on our wines as they mature gently in the barrel ageing cellars.
