Les Ormes de Lagrange Rosé, Chateau Lagrange Les Tours 2007
This is the traditional ‘Clairette’ where the original name of Claret comes from. Lovely deep pink red in colour, soft, full blackcurrant fruit bursting out. A big Rosé, but combined with elegance and restraint!
Les Ormes de Lagrange, Bordeaux Supérieur 2007
Our house Claret “Les Ormes de Lagrange” comes from a small (20 hectares) vineyard situated in St André de Cubzac, just a few miles north of Fronsac. This blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc offers classic Claret scents and flavours. Amazing value, it has a lovely deep purple colour, offers ripe bramble, spice and cedar on the nose and a super soft, black-fruited, balanced finish.
“Les Cent Rangs” Château Lagrange Les Tours, Bordeaux Supérieur 2006
All we can say about this wine is how truly fantastic it is – but this is the first time we have tasted such a great claret at this price. The winemaker, a personal friend of Hamish, is also totally dedicated and passionate about quality. Full bodied and complex with super length and very moreish.
