Robert Parker
The 2018 Lagrange (Pomerol), made from 100% Merlot, has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and opens with understated red and black cherries, baked plums and mulberries scents giving way to expressive camphor, wild thyme, crackd pepper and damp soil notes. Medium-bodied, the palate is firm and grainy with freshness and restraint, giving glimpses at provocativ earthy layers to come, finishing minerally.

Decanter
A succulent and ripe expression of the fruit, with mocha, chocolate and dark pepper spice. Still getting a trace of heat through the finish. There is a clear balance here but it is a big-shouldered wine.
