Chateau Lascombes 2019 750 ml

Description:

Fresh fruits, violet flowers, a bit of black cherry and blackcurrant for an elegant nose, bright and balanced. The mouth is rich, very velvety, fleshy, and elegant concentration with meaningful fruits. The finish is long, sustained, velvety, expressive and fresh.

Blend: 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, 5% Petit-Verdot

96 Points - James Suckling

This is extremely linear and refined, with a super-fine line of tannins running through the center of the wine. It's full-bodied, yet tight and sophisticated, with a long, long finish. Plenty of blackcurrants, dark chocolate, walnut and cedar in the aftertaste. 

93+ Points - Jeb Dunnuck

The 2019 Château Lascombes showed well, with outstanding notes of cassis fruits, cedarwood, and tobacco, and it displays more dark, earthy nuances with time in the glass. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has terrific balance and building tannins, and the vintage's pure, fresh, and focused style is front and center. Hide bottles for 4-6 years and enjoy them over the following two decades. 

92+ Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Offering a rich bouquet of blackberries, cassis, burning embers and sweet spices, the 2019 Lascombes is full-bodied, lavish and textural, with a voluminous core of fruit, lively acids and plenty of ripe, powdery tannin that asserts itself on the youthfully firm finish.
