Saint-Julien Third Growth Chateau Lagrange has been owned by Suntory since 1983, and decades of patient investment show in the consistency of the wines. The 2005 was born of one of Bordeaux's truly classical great vintages — ripe but cool, structured but precise. Now twenty years on, it's settling into a beautiful drinking window: the primary fruit has folded into leather, cedar, and tobacco, the tannins are silky, and the structure still gives it years of life ahead. A textbook mature Left Bank Bordeaux for drinking tonight or holding through the decade.
