Château La Lagune produces a 3rd Grand Cru Classé of Bordeaux whose blend brings together the emblematic grape varieties of the Médoc - Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot - and offers over the years wines recognized for their balance, their finesse and their elegance.Blend: 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, 3% Petit Verdot Layered and refined, with aromas of minerals, currants, cedar, cherries and subtle smoky toast. Juicy, firm and polished, with chalky tannins. Really balanced, with a medium to full body and a very long, poised, nicely vertical finish. A Haut-Médoc that should be snatched up by readers, the 2022 Château La Lagune is a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated Haut-Médoc that includes a solid chunk of Merlot. Fabulous currants, leafy tobacco, cedar pencil, and spicy notes all define this ultra-classic, pure, medium to full-bodied beauty, which has ample mid-palate depth, a pure, layered mouthfeel, and ultra-fine tannins. Rating: 94+ Fragrant and floral on the nose. Juicy and vibrant, this has a lovely weight and depth on the palate while remaining cool and fresh. Generous mineral hints add to black cherry, plum and raspberry fruit while liquorice, graphite and wet stone give crisp edges with bite. Feels well constructed, not pushed too hard at all, but still offering a generous and appealing wine with mouthwatering acidity and fruit purity. Compact, but beautifully textured. Really just so appealing and inviting. Impressive and good potential. Tasted twice. Harvest 9-26 September.Barrel Sample: 94
