About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Red BlendBordeaux, FranceChâteau Lagrange was the first Château in Bordeaux to be bought by a Japanese company back in 1983, namely Suntory. The wines have a refined austerity to them with the trademark being concentrated cassis characters from the dominant Cabernet Sauvignon. In recent years the blend has tended to be a little more approachable with a plumper palate, yet still retaining the classic St-Julien trademark elegance.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.
