Historia

This Third Growth Grand Cru Classe producer is situated in Haut-Medoc, on the site of ‘The Village de La Lagune' built there in 1525. The château itself was erected between 1730 and 1734. The Sèzec family acquired it in 1886 and it remained in their hands until 1956, when it passed to Georges Brunet. The proprietors since 2000 have been the Frey family (owners of Jaboulet in the Rhône), who have invested heavily across all aspects of the business in the pursuit of higher levels of excellence.

Viiniviljelykset

The properties on the Left Bank are slightly larger than those across the river, with La Lagune maintaining 82 hectares under vine: 60% in Cabernet, 30% in Merlot and 10% in Petit Verdot. The wines are early-drinking and quite feminine in style, with an aromatic and elegant presence. Nudges the upper reaches of its classification.

Great care is taken in the vineyard and the winery to ensure that only healthy and ripe grapes are converted into wine. A total of three sortings are done of the fruit, including on a vibrating table. Following a gentle pressing, the fruit is gravity-fed into temperature-controlled, stainless steel vats for the start of maceration and fermentation.

Viinivalmistus

Caroline Frey is to be congratulated for reducing the percentage of new oak in the ageing of Chateau La Lagune. This was previously as high as 100%. Today, depending on the vintage, only about half of the barrels are new. Time in barrel for Chateau La Lagune is about 18 months, whereas second wine Mouline La Lagune is around 12 months, about 30% of the barrels being new.

A new era has begun at Chateau La Lagune with the Frey family. Their determination and goal is to produce a top wine worthy of being the first great chateau one encounters on going up the Route du Medoc.
