Chateau La Lagune 2016
Beautifully located on the left bank of Bordeaux, Chateau La Lagune is one of the finest references in the Haut-Medoc appellation. The vineyards are managed according to organic and biodynamic practices. "The 2016 La Lagune has a classic tobacco and cedar bouquet with fine delineation and nicely integrated oak. The medium-bodied palate offers gentle grip on the entry and plenty of tarry black fruit. A touch of mint emerges toward the linear but impressively focused finish. I like the vivacity and penetration here. This should drink well over the next two decades. Drink 2021-2045" - Neal Martin, vinous.com
