The 2019 La Lagune looks like one of the best purchases of the campaign so far. No 2018 was produced, due to mildew and hail, with virtually no 2017 due to frost, and this is an impressive return from the Frey family. Stunning tannins and loads of intense fruit, and a finish that lasts for minutes.
This wine is now sold out. Please get in touch with your advisor or one of our team on [email protected] or 01473 313 300 for more information or guidance on an alternative.
The 2019 La Lagune has a finely chiseled bouquet, a mélange of red and black fruit, touches of damp clay, undergrowth and cedar developing with time. These aromatics are very nuanced and deserve time, not impactful but intellectual. The palate is medium-bodied with fine but firm tannins. Very linear and correct in style, it feels fresh and sapid, though I would have liked more flair to show through on the saline finish. Still, I like the grip and I suspect it will give 25-30 years drinking pleasure.
