Description
A final blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot from the Frey family, the 2005 is a gorgeous La Lagune, and one of the first great ones under the Frey administration. This wine has a dense ruby/purple color, a beautiful nose of sandalwood, black raspberries, and cassis, silky sweet tannin, medium to full body, and a textured, long, pure mouthfeel and finish. This wine is probably 3-4 years away from prime-time drinking, but it should evolve gorgeously for another 20-25 years.

The 2005 Chateau La Lagune is a stunning example of Haut-Medoc elegance and complexity. This wine boasts a medium to deep ruby-red color and a classical Medoc nose with leafy redcurrant aromas and toasty oak touches. On the palate, it reveals dark red-fruit flavors, good acidity, and a fair structure, culminating in a cedary finish that lingers beautifully. The blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and 10% Petit Verdot results in a wine with silky sweet tannins, medium to full body, and a textured, long, pure mouthfeel. Perfect for pairing with grilled lamb chops, roast beef, mature cheeses, or duck confit, this wine is a testament to the meticulous organic and biodynamic practices at La Lagune vineyard.
