Château Lagrange 2005 – Saint-Julien, 3ème Grand Cru Classé

The nose is fruity, racy, powerful and offers a small freshness. It reveals notes of blackberry jam, strawberry and cherry associated with hints of mocha, wood as well as a discreet note of tobacco, an imperceptible note of cinnamon and sweet spices. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, nicely velvety and offers a fine elegance, a nice finesse, freshness, minerality, an acid frame, relatively powerful as well as a nice structure. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of blackberry cream, cassis and cherry combined with discreet hints of wood and dark chocolate. Good length. There are slight touches of underbrush and mocha on the finish. Beautiful harmony!
