ABOUT THE WINE
Château La Lagune, a distinguished Third Growth estate in the Haut-Médoc, is known for crafting wines of elegance and balance. The 2009 vintage, regarded as one of Bordeaux's finest, benefits from near-perfect growing conditions that allowed the grapes to achieve optimal ripeness. The result is a wine of exceptional depth and richness. The blend consists of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and 10% Petit Verdot, which imparts structure, ripe fruit, and a hint of spice. This is a classic Left Bank wine with excellent ageing potential.

TASTING NOTES
The 2009 Château La Lagune offers an aromatic bouquet of blackberries, blackcurrants, and ripe plums, interwoven with notes of cedar, tobacco, and a subtle touch of cocoa. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with flavours of dark fruits, cassis, and a delicate hint of liquorice. The tannins are finely structured, providing both elegance and power, while the finish is long and complex, with lingering notes of spice and earthiness.

FOOD PAIRING
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted meats such as lamb or beef, game dishes, and hard cheeses like Comté or Manchego. It also complements slow-cooked stews and casseroles, making it an ideal match for hearty, flavourful dishes. Serve at 16-18°C, and decant to fully express its aromatic complexity.

FRIARWOOD SAYS
The 2009 Château La Lagune is a remarkable wine that showcases the richness and finesse of the Haut-Médoc. Its harmonious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot delivers a wine that is both powerful and refined. While it is drinking beautifully now, it has the potential to age gracefully for another 10-15 years, with an ideal drinking window extending from 2018 to 2030. A stunning example of Bordeaux from one of its finest vintages.
