Château Lagrange
History of Château Lagrange
Château Lagrange has a rich history stretching back to the 18th century, with roots deeply embedded in the Saint-Julien appellation. Originally the estate formed part of a larger domain, but under the leadership of dedicated owners it grew into one of the leading grands crus classés of the region. In the early 20th century the château was systematically renovated and modernised, while preserving its historic character. Today Château Lagrange embodies a well-balanced combination of tradition and innovation, with each harvest bearing witness to careful attention to quality. This rich history makes the wine not only prestigious, but also a living monument of Bordeaux culture.
