2006 Château Lagrange, St Julien
Ref: BORD0681
This estate's origins lie in the Middle Ages, but become significant, vinously speaking, with the ownership of Baron de Brane in the 18th century. He also held Brane Cantenac and a property called Brane Mouton (later to be renamed Mouton Rothschild). Later it belonged to John Lewis Brown, owner of Cantenac Brown and the Graves property Château Brown. Then, ion 2842, the then owner installed drainage in the vineyard and the wine increased in quality significantly. Over time, almost half the vineyard was sold off (perhaps most significantly to St Julien neighbours Gloria and Ducru Beaucaillou). In 1983, Lagrange was sold to the Japanese Suntory organisation.

Tasting Notes
"Some real interest on the nose. Dense with masses of cassis and extract. Dry stony finish. Clean, refreshing and layered. Very ambitious but a bit drying on the end." Jancis Robinson

Sweetness
All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab.
Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
