Chateau Lagrange, Saint-Julien, France 2015 Touraine The Orchard Lane Marlborough Sauvignon

The Orchard Lane Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is packed with ripe tropical aromas

the aromas of red fruit and some floral and spicy touches are dominant

redcurrant jelly and black plums scents with touches of garrigue

Long finish is carried by a buried graphite note and hint of smoldering earth

yet less refined

Chateau Lagrange, Saint-Julien, France 2015 Touraine The Orchard Lane Marlborough SauvignonOne of the furthest west of the Saint Julien estates, this property has been greatly improved with investment from Japanese owner Suntory. The wine from 2015 is dense and impressively concentrated, perfumed black currant fruits working well with the crisp acidity and solid structure. 95 Pts Wine Enthusiast
