The property
Bearing the surname of Chevalier Antoine de Lascombes since the 17th century, the Château Lascombes is marked by the imprint of the ten generations of owners who have shaped its history. Since 2011, the mutualist group MACSF has been the owner. The wines of Château Lascombes are recognized as being among the greatest of the Margaux appellation.
The vineyard
This Margaux vineyard is located on a mosaic of plots whose soils are composed, depending on their location, of a gravelly mound, clayey gravels and clay-limestone plots. Uniquely compared to other Margaux crus, the blend of the Château Lascombes vineyard is mainly composed of merlot, then cabernet sauvignon and petit verdot.
