2020 vintage. A blend of 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot, and 9% Petit Verdot. An elegant, fresh, medium-bodied, well-balanced wine with good length. It's not very complex, but a reliable, well-made crowdpleaser. No match for the (more expensive)Moulin Riche 2020 tasted alongside.

Deep Ruby red with aromas of red fruits with cedar spice aromas. On the palate flavors of blackberry and cherry with some cacao and licorice notes, adding mineral tones. Fine tannins, medium finish, good balance with fruit, ending with smoky character, drink now, no real benefit from long-term aging.

1985 vintage. Seems to be the first vintage for the second wine of Lagrange, an estate that improved dramatically ever since it was bought by Suntory. I didn't expect the second wine holding up this well, but it is a delicious wine with an intriguingly smokey nose. In the mouth it is smooth and balanced with still good fruit and energy. A pleasant surprise.

Wow, tasty, aged #bordeaux beautiful ruby out to a red rim, savory blend of blackberries, cassis and green pepper, with hints of menthol
Silky smooth tannins!

Aromas of Huckle berry jam- Apple skin, parsley stem, very light and acidic for a Bordeaux

A decent second, better than expected.

I’ve always quite liked Lagrange. Fiefs is their second wine. The 2008 is dark and juicy. Plush texture. Good drinking now.

I tried this second wine from Lagrange for the second time recently. Juicy and giving, plum and leather . Sage on the finish. Very nice indeed but I’d rather wait a while before my next bottle.

What a delicious wine! Ok, it’s not the most complex Bordeaux in the world but it is pure joy. Fairly intense with dark cherry and tobacco, it has tons of depth and was the perfect mid week pick me up.
