Combining power and elegance, smoothness and tannins, Château Lascombes is a wine of great complexity. In its youth, its depth of colour never fails to impress. Finesse and softness on the palate are complemented by stylish, fine-grained tannins. Château Lascombes should be enjoyed as it ages over the years to enable full appreciation of its aromatic complexity and the development of its ever-more suave structure in bottle.
Nose
An open, intensely aromatic, very complex nose, revealing ripe, black fruits together with notes of roasted coffee beans and toasted bread.
palate
Structured, balanced and powerful with notes of black fruits coming to the fore. The tannins of the wine are silky while those of the wood are integrated enough to help bring out the wine’s overall elegance. The finish, which is long, ends with notes of chocolate and fruit macerated in brandy.
