- Terroir: Gravelly and clay-limestone soils of Margaux, lending the wines a mineral elegance and a silky structure.
- Vinification: A meticulous blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot, patiently aged to preserve the purity of the fruit and the aromatic complexity.
Tasting notes for Château Lascombes 1979
To the eye – A deep ruby robe with tawny glints, of velvety density, betraying a harmonious maturity and a luscious texture.
On the nose – Aromas of wild blackberry, toasted cedar and blond tobacco, lifted by a hint of damp undergrowth and a subtle saline note, evoking the breezes of the estuary.
On the palate – A silky attack, carried by a lively acidity and a chalky minerality, stretching into a long and taut finish, where gentle spices and candied fruits intertwine.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Bordeaux glass to fully release its nuances.
