Winemaker Notes

The 1990 vintage of this wine was ranked #9 on the Wine Spectator's Top 10 Wines of 1993

The superlative vintage: The harvest period: dry, sunny with normal temperature. Fresh mornings allowing to preserve acidity.

The blending consists of 46% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and 09% Petit Verdot.

Critical Acclaim

W&S94
Wine & Spirits
Lagrange produced a joyous cabernet in 2005, with the lovely textural fatness and kindness of tannin that places it clearly in St-Julien. The dark fruit has youthful energy, the tannins a woodsy undertone, like biting into a fresh grilled porcini. The purity of the flavor makes it delicious; that fruit purity is the factor distinguishing the best wines of the vintage. In the case of Lagrange, it will make the wine approachable through the course of a long life; though if you find pleasure in the details, wait on this until it's at least ten years old and check on it at twenty.
WS93
Wine Spectator
Currant, mineral, plum and light toasty oak follow through to a full body, with ultrasilky tannins and a long, caressing finish. This is thoroughly beautiful. Superbalanced and very pretty. Best after 2011. 24,165 cases made.

Wine Spectator: 93 Points
