CHâTEAU LAGRANGE 1978

PRODUCER NOTES

Château Lagrange was known in the Middle Ages as the Noble House of Lagrange Montei. Records of the successive owners go back as far as 1631. In 1824 the total production was 120 barrels (12 000 cases). In 1842, the ex-Home Secretary to King Louis-Philippe, Count Duchatel, left his mark on the property and the Médoc by introducing a drainage system in the vineyard. The Count brought the annual production up to 300 barrels. This was a golden age for Lagrange, with the famous 1855 classification awarding the property the title of Third Classified Growth.
Today, after seventeen years as the estate's technical director, Bruno Eynard took over management from Marcel Ducasse.
Vines which were planted in 1985 are now in their prime, making it possible to select the finest grapes, plot by plot, in order to fine tune the final blend. Château Lagrange's potential remains enormous, and its progress has been tangible from year to year.
Ongoing investments have improved quality, made the most of a unique site, and given priority to environmental considerations at every stage of production.
