Les Fiefs de Lagrange 2023

Subtle roasted notes, floral tones, red berries; approachable, precise tannins, crisp fruit, good length. Delightful.

Perky plum and raspberry character, attractive aromatics; this is enjoyable, with charm and lift. A little short on the finish.

A lovely fruity, fresh, aromatic nose, with fine definition, tension, precise grain, complexity, and freshness. It shows elegant notes of graphite and violet, and, more subtly, pulpy blackberry and fresh/pulpy small red berries, combined with touches of fresh camphor and fresh saffron, as well as delicate hints of cornflower, zan, and gravel. The palate is beautifully juicy, fruity, fresh, mineral, and balanced, offering a tangy framework, accuracy, tension, suppleness, energy, and brightness. It reveals notes of juicy/pulpy blackberry and ripe/vibrant raspberry, and more subtly bright small red berries and violet, along with hints of gravel, toasty nuances, and tobacco. A lovely touch of gentle sweetness and savoriness on the finish/persistence. Lovely freshness, brightness, and juiciness, a tangy thread, and a slight creaminess on the finish/persistence. A very appealing savory and mellow side.
