2021 Fiefs de Lagrange

Fiefs de Lagrange, elegance, depth and intensity Created in 1983, “les Fiefs de Lagrange” is so much more than a second wine. Produced from young vines (with an average age of 30 years) and planted on fine gravel soils for the Cabernet Sauvignon and clay for certain Merlots. 2021 vintage, a window open onto the past This 2021 vintage will have reminded the younger generations that Bordeaux has a temperate oceanic climate where nothing can be taken for granted: indeed it is part of the magic of our unique Terroir. This year, we followed in the footsteps of the people who were at the very origin of those great wines that have made the reputation of Bordeaux. All this with the difference that experience, new knowledge, techniques and yield management are now better mastered and an essential advantage in the quest for quality. This evolution is directly perceptible in our wines today. 2021 will be remembered as the year of humility, of perseverance and of hope. It was a challenging and enriching journey : Never give up, even near the finish line when all is still left to play for ! The balance and harmony of the 2021 vintage reminds us somewhat of the wines produced in the 2000s, with a higher quality in the tannic framework and the aromatic precision. Like a window open onto the past, the 2021 will be our neo-retro vintage par excellence ! Tasting note - Fiefs de Lagrange 2021 The colour is a brilliant bright red. Nice tangy aromas of redcurrant and blackcurrant. Produced from vines that are on average 30 years old, "Les Fiefs de Lagrange" boasts a beautifully coated dense tannic framework. The Merlots add roudness and accessibility while the Cabernets and Petits Verdots give this wine excellent ageing potential.
