The palate combines finesse and softness with a grain of very noble tannins. Over the years, you have to rediscover Château Lascombes to fully appreciate its aromatic complexity and see its structure evolve, becoming more and more suave.

Depth, complexity and gracefulpower characterise this wine, which reveals all its qualities after long ageing in the bottle. Predominantly CabernetSauvignon, it represents the Médoc’s winemaking tradition and embodies the great classicism of Margaux.

TECHNICAL DATA
Alcohol 14%

APPEARANCE
Deep, opaque, and saturated garnet-purple.

NOSE
The bouquet opens with a rich, expressive blast of crème de cassis, blackberry jam, and warm dark plum compote. Underlying the dense fruit are delicate, perfumed notes of violets and lavender, alongside a savory touch of tilled earth and new leather.

PALATE
The attack is lively yet unctuous, displaying a medium-to-full-bodied. The tannins are finely grained and supple. The finish is incredibly long, poised, and savory.

AGEING
18 months in barrels and casks.

PAIRING
Because it has reached its prime decade of aging, it handles both classic roasted dishes and highly flavorful game meat perfectly.
