Description

Magnum Château Grand Lartigue 1989 – Saint-Émilion Grand Cru

The Generosity of a Large Format in a Glorious Vintage

This Magnum of Château Grand Lartigue 1989, a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, captures the warmth, richness, and ripeness of an exceptionally sunny vintage. Grown on the classic clay-limestone soils of Bordeaux’s Right Bank, this wine highlights the expressive charm of Merlot, supported by the structure and freshness of Cabernet Franc.

The 1989 vintage is remembered for its early harvest, consistent conditions, and fully ripened grapes. In magnum format, the wine has aged slowly and gracefully, preserving its vibrancy, depth, and aromatic complexity over the decades.

Now mature, it displays a deep garnet color with brick reflections. The bouquet is rich and evolved, with notes of ripe plum, candied fruit, soft spices, aged leather, and forest floor. On the palate, it is silky and harmonious, with mellow tannins and a long, flavorful finish, showing the balance and poise of a well-aged wine in a generous format.

This 1989 Grand Lartigue Magnum is perfect for celebratory meals, refined family gatherings, or intimate tastings, pairing beautifully with roast beef with wild mushrooms, game dishes in sauce, or aged cheeses.
