Christian Balog beschreibt den Chateau Lagrange 2022 Saint Julien wie folgt:
92-94
Die Nase zeigt sich blaubeerig, mit zart floralen Anklängen, etwas Veilchen, kaum Holz wahrzunehmen. Im Mund zeigt er sich kompakt, mit zart adstringentem Tannin, die MItte ist straff und fleischig, man kann ihn kauen. Kräftiger Körper, gute Länge, die frische Säure trägt ihn sehr gekonnt ins Finale.
Den Chateau Lagrange 2022 Saint Julien beschreibt William Kelley wie folgt:
The 2022 Lagrange is brilliant, ranking alongside the 2020, 2019 and 2016 as one of this over-performing estate's finest recent vintages. Revealing aromas of dark cherries, cassis, violets and pencil shavings, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety and layered, with a deep core of fruit, beautifully refined but youthfully assertive tannins and a long, mouthwatering finish. It's a blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot with a very healthy pH of 3.63.
Den Chateau Lagrange 2022 Saint Julien beschreibt James Suckling wie folgt:
Solid Lagrange with blueberry and blackberry character. Medium body and a tannin structure that unfolds at the finish. Very well done.
Den Chateau Lagrange 2022 Saint Julien beschreibt Jeb Dunnuck wie folgt:
The 2022 Château Lagrange is more mid-weight than I expected, yet it's nicely balanced and certainly elegant. Based on 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, and 2% Petit Verdot pulled from just 40% of the total production, it has a pretty nose of cassis and black raspberry fruits as well as some floral and spicy nuances. Its oak is nicely integrated, it's medium to full-bodied, and it has fine tannins. The barrel review will seem low if this puts on weight over the course of its élevage.
Den Chateau Lagrange 2022 Saint Julien beschreibt Fallstaff wie folgt:
Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Etwas scheues Bukett, dunkle Kirschen, zart nach Brombeeren, ein Hauch von Orangenzesten. Saftig, süße Textur, reife Pflaumen, zart nach Feigen, frisch strukturiert, mineralisch-zitronig im Abgang, bereits gut entwickelt.

94-96
Deep in color, the nose reminds you of walking into a flower shop carrying a basket of fresh-picked berries. The wine is silky, fresh, polished, elegant, and deep, with length, soft tannins, and waves of fruit and freshness in the finish. Starting with the 2016 vintage, Lagrange has been on a hot streak and with 2022, the streak continues! The wine is produced from 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot. Drink from 2027-2055.

96 / 100
Juicy and intensely ripe in terms of texture - tannins are fleshy but also really cool giving this a push-pull of bright acidity and actually quite serious mineral elements of flint and liquorice. Such an appealing weight in the mouth, layered and structured with expressive fruit and lively juiciness all combining to a stylish and inviting whole. So much going on but managed with finesse and elegance. A clear success in 2022. Harvest 8-30 September. Ageing 21 months in French oak, 60% new. Tasted twice.
