The second wine of Château Rouget. The terroirs dedicated to Le Carillon de Rouget are slightly higher than the ones selected for Château Rouget.

It is planted partly on gravel, partly on clay, including the celebrated blue clay soils so favoured by Merlot vines (95% here) allowing them to achieve exemplary expression. In 2012 Lagrange benefited from the addition of a what had been Certan-Marzelle a two hectare plot within what had formerly been Château Certan Giraud. It now encompass
