Les Fleurs du Lac de Château Lagrange 2018, Bordeaux Blanc, Bordeaux, France

Historically, a good number of chateaux in the Medoc produced a white wine primarily destined for their own consumption or receptions. This was the case for Château Lagrange until the beginning of the sixties. Then, due to the bad economic situation at the time, production of this wine was abandoned. The tradition was revived starting with the 1997 vintage, and a dry white wine (AOC Bordeaux) was put on the Bordeaux market called “Les Arums De Lagrange”. Soil: Homogeneous sandy gravel.
