Château La Lagune - Bordeaux Collection (France)
Château La Lagune is a winery in the Haut-Médoc appellation of the Bordeaux region of France. The wine produced here was classified as one of fourteen Troisièmes Crus (Third Growths) in the historic Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855. Rescued from dereliction in 1954 by Georges Brunet, La Lagune was subsequently sold to the Ducellier family of Champagne Ayala. In 2000, both La Lagune and Champagne Ayala were sold to the Frey family. Ayala was then sold to the House of Bollinger, and the Frey family acquired Maison Jaboulet in the Rhone.
Bordeaux France
70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. Black cherries, flowers, chocolate and a touch of vanilla in the nose. Full and chubby character, lots of ripe fruit and notions of cocoa and cedar wood. The finish is soft but with an enviable length.
