Situated in Saint-Julien, Château Lalande-Borie is owned by Ducru-Beaucaillou owner, Bruno Borie, and is a relatively newcomer to the Médoc, having been created when Borie purchased 18 hectares of vines from Château Lagrange in 1970. The 2000 vintage was widely regarded as being exceptional, producing wines of density, concentration and longevity.
