William Kelley im April 2022: The 2019 Lagrange has turned out beautifully in bottle, wafting from the glass with aromas of cherries, blackberries and cassis mingled with hints of loamy soil, pencil shavings and bay leaf. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, with an ample core of lively fruit, powdery tannins and succulent acids, it's suave and seamless, concluding with a long, expansive finish. The result of an extremely rigorous selection, and incorporating fully 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, this is the finest wine this château has produced in the modern era. Remarkably, it was released at the same price en primeur as the 2005!
James Suckling über den Chateau Lagrange 2019 Saint Julien:Aromas of blackcurrants, sandalwood and rose petals. Medium-to full-bodied with linear tannins that are racy and refined, yet forceful. Fine tannins at the end. Best after 2024.
Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Lagrange 2019 Saint Julien:A deep, fleshy Saint-Julien, the 2019 Lagrange builds beautifully with time in the glass. Sweet red/purplish berry fruit, rose petal, sage, mint, lavender and cinnamon are finely delineated, and yet this mid-weight Saint-Julien impresses with its super finessed personality. The 2019 is so inviting. It is an especially fine Lagrange. Tasted two times.
Jeb Dunnuck im April 2022: While I don't think the 2019 Château Lagrange matches the 2018, it's not far off, with a more elegant yet still concentrated style. Beautiful crème de cassis, spicy oak, tobacco, chocolate, and new saddle leather notes all emerge on the nose, and it stays tight, compact, and focused on the palate, with plenty of firm tannins. It opens up beautifully with time in the glass but merits 4-6 years of bottle age, and it should evolve for 20-25 years or more.
Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Lagrange 2019 Saint Julien:The 2019 Lagrange, which was picked over the longest period ever, has a compelling bouquet of beautifully defined black fruit laced with cedar and light graphite notes. The palate is smooth, fresh and vibrant, with great depth, perfectly judged acidity and a brilliantly focused finish. Winemaker Mathieu Bordes has crafted the best Lagrange in recent years, a benchmark for the estate.
Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth den Chateau Lagrange 2019 Saint Julien:Juicy and flush, with steeped red and black currant and plum fruit flavors, this has a generous edge from start to finish. Features notes of tobacco, singed cedar, warm earth and iron throughout, with a seductive hint of incense curling around the tail end of the finish. This has a generosity that makes it approachable, but there's no rush at all to drink this one. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2023 through 2036. 16,000 cases made, 700 cases imported.
Der Chateau Lagrange 2019 Saint Julien am Gaumen der Falstaff-Verköstiger:Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Süße reife Waldbeeren, ein Hauch von Cassis und Lakritze unterlegt, zart nach Nougat und Tabak, etwas Velour, ein facettenreiches, einladendes Bukett. Komplex, reife Brombeeren und schwarze Kirschen, feine tragende Tannine, lebendige Struktur, kraftvoll und mit Länge ausgestattet, mineralisch-salziger Nachhall, sicheres Potenzial.
27.04.2020 A red with dark fruit and plenty of dark chocolate. as well as spice undertones. Full body. Juicy finish. Extremely balanced and refined.
16.06.2020 The 2019 Lagrange was picked from 24 September and finished with the Petit Verdot on 14 October - the longest harvest at 27 days. It has quite a dense. powerful bouquet with black fruit. sous-bois and cedar. taking its time to open but somehow remaining more “distant” than previous vintages of Lagrange. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. layers of black fruit with just a light citric touch. Quite a streamlined Lagrange in the context of a warm growing season. this feels agile and nimble on the finish. Excellent.
