Winery Introduction
The name of the winery Lagune means French equivalent to the English word “Lagune”. It also means the meaning of lagoon, but it is strange that there is no sign of a lake or a lot of water on or near the estate. In any case, the history of the winery already existed in the 18th century. Geographically speaking, Lagone Manor, located 16 km from Bordeaux, is the first person to see on the road from Bordeaux to Meudon. Like most of the estates, Laguna Manor has changed hands many times over several hundred years. After several ups and downs, he climbed the summit of the No. 3 Grand Prix. He also encountered fame and sinking. Before 1961, the owner Brunet transferred the winery to Ayala, a champagne producer, because of financial problems. He also got a good return after spending a lot of resources and improving the vineyards in Ayala. The 1982, 1989 and 1990 are the brilliance of the winery. . The situation did not change until 2000, when the Frey family bought Ayala Champagne and also acquired Lagune Manor. One of Lagune’s traditions is that women were first used as important positions in the winery. As early as 1964, the winery managed a winery by employing a female manager, Jeanne Boyrie. After Jeanne died in 1986, the winery took care of her daughter, Caroline. In 1972. The current Laguna manor, also the chief of women, is managed by Caroline Frey of the Frey family, and the consultant is a senior Denis Dubourdieu. After Caroline Farley took over, the outstanding year of brewing was 2003. Probably due to women's winemaking, the wine is a bit feminine, and Paker even describes it as a burly wine. Although the score is only 90 points, it is already the highest bottle of wine since 90 years. Since 2003, until 2008, there is no bottle of Laguna score below 90 points!
