Château Lagrange, classified as 3rd Grand Cru Classé in 1855, is a powerful and elegant wine from the Saint-Julien appellation. The wine is a blend of mainly Cabernet Sauvignon, supplemented with Merlot and Petit Verdot, which gives it a deep ruby red color and a complex structure. On the nose it offers aromas of blackcurrant, plum and subtle notes of cedar and graphite, typical of wines from Saint-Julien. On the palate it is rich and full, with well-structured tannins, lively acidity, and a long, refined finish that continues to develop as the wine matures.
Wine serving temperature: 16 - 18 °C.
Château Lagrange is an excellent accompaniment to grilled red meats, such as sirloin steak or lamb chops, and also goes perfectly with game dishes such as venison steak or roasted pheasant. The complexity of the wine makes it a good match for hearty stews, such as boeuf bourguignon, and it also comes into its own alongside mature cheeses, such as an old Comté or a powerful Roquefort.
