Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

Appellation

Margaux

The Margaux appellation of France's legendary Bordeaux wine region is one of the world's most famous and highly respected viticultural areas. For centuries, Margaux has been deeply associated with extremely fine wines of the highest quality, made using traditional and time-honored techniques in order to extract the very best, most refined and elegant flavors and aromas from the Bordeaux varietal grapes which grow there. Margaux wines are almost always blended, using two or three key Bordeaux grapes, commonly Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc (amongst others). The blending techniques and quantities have been passed down through the generations in the ancestral chateaus which make up the region, and quality and prestige has never been allowed to falter, making Margaux one of the undisputed jewels in France's already glittering crown.

The Wine Independent

A blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot, the 2021 Lascombes has a medium to deep garnet-purple color. Scents of black cherries, cassis, and redcurrant jelly slowly emerge from the glass, giving way to nuances of dried lavender, rose oil, and cloves, with a waft of cedar chest. The medium-bodied palate is elegant and soft-spoken, with compelling tension and fine-grained tannins, finishing on a persistent mineral note. Impressive!

Vinous Media

The 2021 Lascombes has a fleshy, ripe, fruit-forward bouquet with black cherries, raspberry and inkwell aromas that gather momentum in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with quite plush tannins on the entry, good weight and breadth, yet missing some details and personality on the finish that slightly tapers away. Fine, but there are a few edges that need to be shaved and I think they will.

Jeb Dunnuck

The 2021 Château Lascombes is a darker, rich Margaux revealing some firm tannins yet good mid-palate depth and richness. Ripe blue fruits, a touch of chocolaty oak, medium-bodied richness, and good balance all define this solid, classic Lascombes that will round into form over the course of its élevage and, I suspect, drink well for two decades or more.

Wine Advocate

The 2021 Lascombes is a successful effort in a rather more punchy, modern style, opening in the glass with aromas of berries and plums mingled with notions of sweet spices, loamy soil and creamy new oak. Medium to full-bodied, rich and youthfully firm, it's deep and extracted, with plenty of ripe, powdery tannin that asserts itself on the finish.

Decanter

Dark chocolate covered black cherries on the nose, so appealing. This is scrumptious; the combination of cool, crunchy fruit with ripe, plush tannins and generous acidity. I love the lifted nature, the sweet fruit aspects and the chalky, wet stone element to the tannins which coats the mouth. Feels precise and well worked. Lovely stuff. Tasted twice.

Winery Notes

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. Chateau 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.
