Château Lascombes 2019

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Offering up 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. This is a powerful, muscular style of Margaux that remains nicely balanced in its register.

Jeb Dunnuck

The 2019 Château Lascombes showed well, with outstanding notes of cassis fruits as well as 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, building tannins, and the vintage's pure, fresh, and focused style front and center. Hide bottles for 4-6 years and enjoy them over the following two decades.

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 blackcurrant, dark chocolate, walnut and cedar in the aftertaste. Try after 2025.

The Wine Independent

Falstaff

Andreas Larsson - Tasted

A polished and modern expression with fine oak/butterscotch underling layers of dark, ample fruit - cassis and black cherry notes with finely sprinkled spices. Dense warm and concentrated palate with layers of black fruit with a long and muscular finish.

VertdeVin

The nose is elegant, fruity and offers gourmandise, some richness justly carried out, creaminess as well as a nice fine and elegant grain. There are notes of creamy blackcurrant, wild blackberry and, to a lesser extent, violet, combined with delicate touches of cherry, cherry blossom and fine hints of liquorice. The palate is fruity and offers minerality, creaminess, smoothness and a fine gourmandise. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of creamy blackberry, creamy cherry and, more slightly, raspberry, combined with hints of chocolate, vanilla, toast and fine points of toasted hazelnut. Finesse in its richness. Subtle hint of positive bitterness on the finish.
