Château La Lagune 3. Cru Classé Haut-Médoc 2021 | 1,5 Liter

"Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Frische Herzkirschen, Brombeerkonfitüre, feine Kräuterwürze, ein Hauch von Nougat und Tabak. Saftig, elegant, kirschige Frucht, seidige Tannine, angenehme Frische, mineralisch und gut anhaftend, hat Potenzial."
92/100 Punkte

"A pretty middle-weight, the 2021 La Lagune offers up inviting aromas of sweet berries and plums mingled with hints of licorice, loamy soil, raw cocoa and cigar wrapper. Medium-bodied, ample and succulent, it's fleshy and seamless, with an ample core of fruit, bright acids and melting tannins. A blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot, it checks in at a modest 12.5% alcohol. Tasted four times, twice at the château."

"The 2021 La Lagune is a gorgeous, super-expressive wine. The aromatics alone are beguiling. Deep and beautifully layered in the glass, with striking layers of nuance, the 2021 is a knock-out. It should age gracefully for many years to come." von ANTONIO GALLONI

"The 2021 La Lagune was picked from September 23 until October 12, from a biodynamically run vineyard due for certification in 2023, and matured in 50% new oak. It suffered a little frost damage at the beginning of the season but very little mildew. The Cabernet was deleafed and yields controlled (30hL/ha) in order to achieve ripeness. This has plenty of brambly red berry fruit on the nose, along with wild strawberry and tayberry - sous-bois and freshly rolled tobacco scents unfold with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with a slightly austere opening, modest depth, noticeable acidity and peppery red fruit toward the finish, which leaves a residual bitterness on the aftertaste. Maybe a little rustic after preceding vintages, this will just need to fill out during élevage." von NEAL MARTIN

"Ausbau in 50% neuen Barriques, 25% zweiter Belegung und 25% dritter Belegung. La Lagune 2021 offenbart die Finesse, die man vom Weingut kennt, durch Noten von roten Beeren, Gewürzen und Minznuancen. Der Wein ist elegant, leicht cremig und präzise. Seine gut eingebundenen Tannine harmonieren mit der Spannung der Säure. Ein La Lagune, der sowohl Muskeln als auch eine füllige Seite hat. Er glänzt durch seine Finesse und seine Fähigkeit, eine Symbiose zwischen Temperament und Dichte zu schaffen. Schöner, lang anhaltender Abgang."
