The Chateau Lagrange we know today dates back to the 18th century although the land has been utilised for a much longer period. It is reputed to have been home to an order of the Knights Templar in the early 14th century but was given to the De Cours family when the sect dissolved. In recent years, considerable investment has resulted in the estate enjoying huge success.
Les Fiefs de Lagrange is the second wine of the estate with only 31000 cases made. A second wine is the term for a premium wine made by an estate that is second only to their Grand Vin. These wines are produced from the same vineyards as the grand vin but at a more accessible price and can be a great introduction to their `older sibling`. In the vineyard and winery, these wines generally receive the same treatment as the grand vin however, the overall blend and maturation are different.
This wine combines great purity, tangy acidity and depth of fruit. The bouquet is deep, focused and classy.
