Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Dec 20
The 1996 Lagrange has long been my favourite vintage from the 1990s. It was picked from 26 September to 11 October. This is a level up in quality over the previous vintage with far more delineation and complexity: blackberry, wild hedgerow, sandalwood and light dried blood aromas. The palate is fully matured with firm tannin, but sufficient fruit to back it up. This is well balanced with plenty of freshness, tart cherries, allspice and light Moroccan spice notes on the harmonious and persistent finish. Excellent. Tasted at the Lagrange vertical at the estate.

Saint-Julien, a prestigious Bordeaux appellation in the Médoc, is famed for its balanced red wines, blending the power of Pauillac with the elegance of Margaux.

Known for their finesse, complexity, and long ageing potential, top producers include Château Léoville-Las Cases, Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, and Château Gruaud-Larose. Saint-Julien wines are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.
