Château Lagrange - Les Fleurs Du Lac 2024

Lagrange was awarded the rank of Third Classified Growth in the official 1855 classification. The estate became the meeting place of High Society, with sumptuous receptions. Artists were also frequently invited, drawing inspiration from the impressive landscapes.

Darker years were to follow: the phylloxera crisis, World Wars, fires, various vine diseases, economic and financial crises…Lagrange did not come out unscathed. In 1983 Keizo Saji, son of the founder of Suntory, bought the property from the Cendoya family, who had owned it since 1925.

The objective is to restore this Grand Cru Classé to its former glory. Their uncompromising vision was clear, and their sights were set on excellence. Over the first ten years the team undertook the ambitious project of renovating the estate – restructuring the vineyard to create more precise plots and adopting a strategy of sustainable development from the mid-nineties onwards. The buildings were entirely renovated, both the cellars and the Château, which underwent a magnificent refurbishment that skillfully mixed French style and Asian artwork. Through great passion, hard work, and skill, little by little the prestigious image of Château Lagrange was restored.

Gentle extraction by pressing in bunches Settling 12 hours after cold fermentation in 225L barrels. No malolactic fermentation. Aged 7 months in barrels with 40% new barrels Final blend before bottling.

A great deal of complexity Les Fleurs du Lac 2024, which brings together our three grape varieties in this blend dominated by Sauvignon Blanc. An explosion of fresh fruit with notes of grapefruit, pineapple and peach that are regularly found in this wine. The palate is tighter and fresher, with exotic notes of mango and passion fruit. A great success to be savoured without delay.
