Lagrange (Saint Julien) Vintage:2016 and this recently disgorged renditionSome rather appealing graphite on the nose. Lots of fruit on the front palate really a rather unusual amount. Still quite a marked charge of tannin. But all seems to be in the right place and proportion. Clean, brisk finish. GV
