97 Points - Jeb DunnuckThe flagship 2018 Ch�teau Lagrange is a more dense, backward, serious wine, offering an un-evolved yet incredibly promising bouquet of cassis, blackcurrants, scorched earth, graphite, and violets. A big, rich, full-bodied Saint-Julien, it delivers thrilling purity of fruit, plenty of background oak, ripe, silky tannins, and a great mid-palate. This is serious stuff, but it's going to require patience. Hide bottles for 7-8 years, count yourself lucky, and enjoy over the following two decades.95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine AdvocateMedium to deep garnet-purple coloured, the 2018 Lagrange explodes from the glass with bombastic notes of cr�me de cassis, chocolate-covered cherries and baked red and black plums with suggestions of rose oil, cedar chest, pencil lead and hoisin. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has fantastic vibrancy for the ripeness, packed with juicy black fruits and compelling tension
