Château Lagrange kommer fra den vestlige del af Saint-Julien tæt ved Gruaud Larose og Branaire Ducru, hvor slottet er det højest beliggende vinslot i Saint-Julien. Her dyrkes ca. 118 ha vinmarker på en jordbund af grus, sand og jernholdigt ler.

Siden 1983, hvor den japanske Suntory Group overtog slottet, er der gradvist sket enorme investeringer i domænet, hvilket har haft enorm betydning for kvaliteten.

Efter plukning sorteres druerne inden vinifikationen, som foregår i temperaturkontrollerede ståltanke. Slottet råder over temmelig mange tanke i forskellige størrelser, så det er muligt at vinificere hvert enkelt plot for sig.

Efter endt gæring lagrer vinen i ca. 21 måneder på egefade, hvoraf 60% er nye.

92-94 point, The Wine Advocate: 

"Representing only 39% of the estate's production, the 2021 Lagrange is very promising indeed, mingling aromas of wild berries and blackcurrants with notions of loamy soils, pencil shavings and violets. Medium to full-bodied, ample and seamless, with fine depth at the core, powdery tannins and lively acids, it saw a cool vinification and contains a record 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, much of which was picked late, between the seventh and 12th of October. It's a brilliant effort from Matthieu Bordes and his team. Tasted five times, twice at the estate." 

92-94 point, Vinous: 

"The 2021 Lagrange has a ton of potential. Bright Cabernet inflections lead into a core of red/purplish fruit. This mid-weight, gracious Saint-Julien is all class, all the way. Layered and super-expressive, Lagrange is a winner in 2021. Tasted two times."

93 point, Decanter:

"Super-floral on the nose, a celebration of peony, violet and rose flowers. Juicy and supple with a real life-force. The starts off bright and upfront with strawberry and red cherry notes that merge into a darker, more savoury mid-palate full of slate and chocolate. I like the persistence here, the clarity of the fruit expression and the brightness. It's not the most expansive but the individual elements are so well presented with detail on show. A great effort in the vintage with no drop in the mid-palate, acidity in check and nice floral fruit."
