Château La Lagune
The historical Château La Lagune dates all the way back to the 16th century, and has gone through both good and bad times since. The 1950s dealt the château a series of issues, from the financial pressure caused by the economic crisis, to the great frost of 1956, which devastated a rather large part of vineyards in Bordeaux, the domaine with the help of George Burnette was able to rebuild. By the turn of the century, the Frey family acquired the estate, and currently remains in the hands of Caroline Frey. Today, Château La Lagune is one of the finest Third Growths in Haut-Médoc, with over 80-hectares planted to the appellation’s most emblematic grape varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot. Enologist and manager, Caroline has implemented the transition to organic farming, with certification scheduled for harvest 2016. Recognized for their, balance, finesse and elegance, the estate’s flagship wine called La Lagune is increasingly impressive. Fermented in stainless steel temperature-controlled tanks, the wine is then aged in new oak, and is one of Médoc’s best clarets.
