Born from the gravelly terroirs of Margaux, Château Lascombes 1990 – Deuxième Grand Cru Classé – blends Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot. Its notes of black fruits and spices, with a velvety palate, make it a perfect wine to pair with meats or cheeses, to enjoy now or after cellaring.
A historic estate in Margaux, classified as a Deuxième Grand Cru in 1855, where Bordeaux tradition and viticultural precision come together.
- Terroir: Deep gravels and calcareous clays of the Margaux appellation, imparting elegance and mineral structure.
- Vinification: A meticulous blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot, aged to reveal the purity of the fruit and the complexity of the terroir.
Tasting notes for Château Lascombes 1990
To the eye: Garnet robe with tawny highlights, displaying a silky density and a brilliance preserved by the years.
On the nose: Aromas of wild blackberry, aged cedar, blond tobacco, and damp undergrowth, lifted by a saline touch and a hint of graphite.
On the palate: Velvety texture, supported by a lively acidity and a chalky minerality, with a long, taut finish where notes of liquorice and candied black fruits linger.
Serve at 61-64°F in a Bordeaux glass to release its nuances.
