Château Lagrange  2014 – Saint-Julien, 3ème Grand Cru Classé

The nose is fine, elegant and offers a slight richness/concentration. It reveals slight notes of crushed wild strawberry, red berries and blueberry associated with a discreet hint of chocolate, caramelized oak, a subtle hint of spices as well as an imperceptible hint of Sichuan pepper, violet and a very discreet hint of vnailla. The palate is fruity, juicy, mineral, well-balanced, slightly tight and offers a slight density. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of wild strawberry, red cherry and slight notes of blackberry associated with a hint of plum, discreet hints of toasted oak, sweet spices as well as a very discreet hint of chocolate, a subtle hint of violet and a very discreet hint of salinity. Tannins are fine and slightly firm/straight. Good length and persistence.
