Note di degustazione
The 2011 La Lagune offers rather meaty red fruit on the nose, touches of cigar box and cooked meat. The palate is medium-bodied with dry tannins, tobacco and black pepper, though this feels rather attenuated towards the finish. This was showing far better four to five years ago at the château, so I leave a question mark against my score. Tasted blind at the annual 10-Year-On tasting.

Tasted blind. Round and supple with just enough freshness. Quite emphatic. (JR)
The 2011 La Lagune had a difficult task in following up the 2010, but it does its best with more tightly wound red fruit than black. There is just a slight tinny scent that soon dissipates and it offers more attractive scents of orange rind and violet with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, good weight in the mouth, well balanced with dusky black fruit laced with Earl Grey and a pinch of white pepper. This finishes with grace and elegance. Bon vin . Tasted at the La Lagune vertical at the château.
