Château La Lagune 2021

Jane Anson - Inside Bordeaux

Izak Litwar - Great Wines from Bordeaux

70 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. 12.8% alcohol. It is neither a blockbuster nor a skinny wine, just a precise, elegant, stylish, and classy one. Fresh and aromatic, with notes of violets and redcurrants, this wine is lively, velvety, and has a persistent finish. Fine effort.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2021 La Lagune has turned out nicely in bottle, unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, cherries, spices and truffles, followed by a medium to full-bodied, velvety and seamless palate with good depth of fruit, lively acids and sweet tannins.

Jeb Dunnuck

An estate that continues to punch above its weight, the 2021 Château La Lagune sports a deep ruby/plum hue as well as a terrific bouquet of ripe black fruits, cassis, graphite, and scorched earth. One of the most serious, concentrated, age-worthy Haut-Médocs in the vintage, it has medium-bodied richness, a layered, concentrated mid-palate, background oak, and ripe tannins. Give it 2-4 years and enjoy over the following decade or more. This is one that's well worth seeking out.

James Suckling

This is showing aromas of black currants, dried herbs, paprika, orange zest and tobacco leaves. It’s medium-bodied with fine-grained, polished tannins. Silky, elegant and long. 70% cabernet sauvignon, 20% merlot and 10% petit verdot. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink after 2024.
