Chateau La Lagune Haut-Medoc 2021
Chateau La Lagune is the first classified growth you encounter driving north from Bordeaux city, a 3ème Cru Classé with gravelly soils that produce wines of real finesse. The 2021 vintage in Bordeaux was challenging but the best estates (like this) delivered focused, elegant wines with excellent aging potential. Classic left bank blend: roughly 60% Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot.
Fixin, La Place, Domaine Jean Tardy et Fils 2020
Blink and you’d literally miss Domaine Jean Tardy, an envelope-sized sign by a driveway off the RN74 just outside Vosne Romanée the only indication that you are in the right place. Unprepossessing as this domaine looks, the wines continue to show plenty of personality and Guillaume does a particularly impressive line in vieilles vignes lieu dits (old vine, single vineyards), which allow him to “ avoid making a bad marriage between the wrong parcels ”. The results are always seductive and digestible and compete with premier crus for quality and complexity.
