Description
A complex Margaux wine with a beautiful tannic structure
The property
Bearing the surname of the Knight 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
120 hectares in the Margaux appellation and 10 hectares in the Haut-Médoc appellation make up the vineyard of this Second Grand Cru Classé in 1855.
This vineyard is planted 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 vineyard of Château Lascombes is mainly composed of merlot, then cabernet sauvignon and petit verdot.
Blend
50 % cabernet sauvignon, 47 % merlot and 3 % petit verdot.

Delicately wooded - without losing its aromatic soul, the nose proudly expresses a wide sensory palette mainly dominated by the family of black fruits and balsamic notes in addition. Agitation reinforces the concentrated character of the scents.

The palate impresses with its structure, its delicate tannins and its persistence.
