“Very attractive, ripe dark berries with a meaty edge that delivers a very compelling wine from the outset. Quite plush and elegant tannins with a smooth, juicy and attractive finish that holds long and is saturated in flavor. Seamless build. Really stunning. Try from 2022.”

  • As one of the fifteen Seconds Crus (Second Growths), the wine is always value for monies given the just about right marketing and promotional efforts. Wine qualities have been improving over the past three decades, one of the most modern-styled wines of Margaux being produced today. 
  • largest vineyard in the Margaux appellation with 120 hectares under vine with an average age of 35 years
  • Winemaker Notes: Combining power and elegance and an unctuous and tannin-rich texture, Chateau Lascombes is a complex wine. In its youth, it always has an amazingly deep color. On the palate, finesse and a rich texture combine with very stylish fine-grained tannins
  • Rich, fleshy, ripe and occasionally jammy, particularly oaky when tasted young.
  • Best served at 15.5 degrees celsius. Cool cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift. 
  • Best serbved with all types of classic meat dishes, and perfect match with Asian dishes, hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms, and pasta as well as cheese.
