Tasting notes
Château Lagrange's 1982 vintage is quite the star among Bordeaux wines, especially since it's the first Bordeaux crafted by Suntory. With Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot leading the charge, this one gives you that classic Bordeaux vibe.
Remember the scene in volume 2 where Sarah didn't really enjoy this vintage in the past? It's interesting to think about how time might have changed that perception. Her reaction back then, I wonder how she'd feel about it now—let's see together.
Pour a glass and check out that deep ruby color. There's a hint of brick at the rim, telling the tale of its years. As you take a whiff, rich cassis and black cherry burst forth, and then there's this alluring hint of tobacco and black tea sneaking in.
Take a sip, and you'll find this lush fruit sweetness, with acidity that's smooth and rounded. The tannins are dense and well-integrated, thanks to 44 years of aging. The finish is long, giving you plenty of time to savor every moment. Perfect for a special occasion, don't you think?
