Today the Chateau La Lagune is in the ownership of the Frey family who acquired Champagne Ayala (and thus La Lagune) in 2000. The vines are 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and an unusually high 10% Petit Verdot. The wine produced at La Lagune is to be big, tannic and masculine, no doubt helped along by all that oak. Nevertheless it is of good quality, and as the vintages mature the oak is well absorbed by the wine, leaving us with a substantial drink which is of a good value.
