This vintage is 52% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon \u0026amp; 8% Petit Verdot. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt shows with a lovely brilliant deep ruby red colour in the glass, and offers fresh aromas of red berries (red currants, black currants) and raspberries - with hints of smoky spices - on the nose. \u003cbr\u003eOn the palate, you get dark berries, fresh acidity and rich ripe tannins. It's medium-to-full bodied with a long fresh finish. \u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWine Advocate said\u003cbr\u003e(89-91) Points: 2021 Les Fiefs de Lagrange offers up attractive aromas of cassis, plums, tobacco leaf and nicely integrated oak. Medium to full-bodied, ample and charming, it's a supple, seamless wine that will drink well on release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDecanter said:\u003cbr\u003e89 Points, Dark chocolate and blueberries on the nose. Supple and generous on the palate, this has a lightness of touch and a brightness of pure fruit - it's unfussy but agile and charming. Easy to enjoy with a strawberry tang at the end plus crushed stone and mint notes, too. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlc.

We decided to take our time and to suspend the picking for 2 days. It was a risky decision but a necessary one if we were to harvest great Cabernet! We finish the harvest on the 12th October, we observed the grapes developing every day, progressively more concentrated, losing up to 30% in weight, the tannins and skins becoming finer, revealing promising aromas. 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. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WebWines IE","offers":[{"title":"Bottle","offer_id":55365870027090,"sku":null,"price":44.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/1929\/9154\/files\/Fiefs_de_Lagrange.jpg?v=1794051200","url":"https:\/\/www.webwines.ie\/products\/les-fiefs-de-lagrange-2021-st-julien-bordeaux","provider":"WebWines IE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
