Château Lagrange - Pomerol - Red - 2021 :

 

The Allure of Château Lagrange Pomerol

Hailing from the elite Pomerol appellation on Bordeaux's Right Bank, Château Lagrange Pomerol is a testament to the sheer quality of Merlot grown on clay-rich soils. Under the careful stewardship of the Moueix family, this wine consistently delivers a classic, yet modern, expression of the region: rich, supple, and profoundly elegant.

Tasting Notes & Heritage

The estate’s terroir, featuring the iron-rich 'crasse de fer' subsoil, lends the wine its characteristic power and depth, while meticulous vineyard management ensures optimal ripeness.

• Nose: A complex nose of dark fruit (blackberry, damson), intertwined with forest floor, cedar, a touch of liquorice, and the coveted hint of black truffle.
• Palate: Full and fleshy, with an immediate generosity of fruit. The tannins are beautifully integrated, providing a silky, almost seamless texture. The finish is savoury, long, and perfectly balanced.
• Drinking Window: While enjoyable young with decanting, this wine will reward patience, peaking over a decade or more.

Food Matching & Serving

Serve slightly cooler than room temperature (around 17°C) after decanting. This wine is a natural match for the finest British game and traditional roasts.
