Tasting notes
Tasted blind. Deep crimson. Intense aroma of pure dark fruits and a touch of oaky vanilla. Juicy, lots of freshness, finely dry tannins. On the lighter side on the palate but balanced. (JH)

The 2020 Les Fiefs de Lagrange has a very capable bouquet with crisp blackberry and wild strawberry fruit, freshly rolled tobacco and light gravelly scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, fleshy tannins. Rounded, smooth in texture and not amazingly complex, there is decent length and purity. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting.
The 2020 Les Fiefs de Lagrange, aged for 14 months in used oak, has a clean and fresh bouquet with blackberry, raspberry coulis , cedar and light minty aromas. Pretty. The palate is medium-bodied with a little chewiness on the entry, fine acidity, dark berry fruit mixed with subtle marine notes, a light lick of seaweed towards the finish. Gets the saliva flowing.
