James Suckling, 95-96 Points
"This is long and fresh with a linear feeling to the rich fruit, showing plums, redcurrants and spices, with chocolate and walnuts. Medium to full body. Fine tannins. This is the first year being certified biodynamic by Biodyvin and furthermore, La Lagune is always excellent in hot years."
Jeb Dunnuck, 94+ Points
"A Haut-Médoc that should be snatched up by readers, the 2022 Château La Lagune is a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominated Haut-Médoc that includes a solid chunk of Merlot. Fabulous currants, leafy tobacco, cedar pencil, and spicy notes all define this ultra-classic, pure, medium to full-bodied beauty, which has ample mid-palate depth, a pure, layered mouthfeel, and ultra-fine tannins. It will benefit from 4-6 years in the cellar and have 2-3 decades of overall longevity."
Decanter, 94 Points
"Fragrant and floral on the nose. Juicy and vibrant, this has a lovely weight and depth on the palate while remaining cool and fresh. Generous mineral hints add to black cherry, plum and raspberry fruit while liquorice, graphite and wet stone give crisp edges with bite. Feels well constructed, not pushed too hard at all, but still offering a generous and appealing wine with mouthwatering acidity and fruit purity. Compact, but beautifully textured. Really just so appealing and inviting. Impressive and good potential. Tasted twice. Harvest 9-26 September."
Wine Advocate, 93 Points
"Notes of cassis, licorice, sweet berries and flowers preface the 2022 La Lagune, a medium to full-bodied, layered and enveloping wine with a broad attack, velvety tannins and a sweet core of fruit. This is a real success."
