Château Lascombes – Margaux – Red – 2015 – 3000 ml:

 

Château Lascombes: The Bold, Opulent Second Growth of Margaux

Château Lascombes, a Second Growth (Deuxième Grand Cru Classé) from the prestigious 1855 classification, stands as one of the largest and most dynamic estates in the Margaux appellation. This is a wine that delivers the classic ‘iron fist in a velvet glove’ character of Margaux, but in a notably rich, modern, and high-impact style, perfectly aligned with the demands of the luxury market.

Tasting Notes (14.5% ABV Vintage)

• Appearance: Deep, inky garnet with a captivating purple rim.
• Nose: An explosive bouquet of ripe black fruits-crushed blackcurrant, juicy plum, and wild blackberry-layered with savory notes of cedar, espresso bean, dark chocolate, and a hint of smoky oak.
• Palate: The mouthfeel is round, lush, and full-bodied. Despite its opulence, the wine maintains Margaux’s signature elegance, featuring polished, fine-grained tannins that provide superb structure. The 14.5% ABV is seamlessly integrated, leading to a powerful, long, and complex finish that lingers with notes of licorice and mocha.

Pairing & Serving

This powerful Margaux demands equally rich, flavorful cuisine. Serve at a cellar temperature of 60-64°F (16-18°C). We strongly recommend decanting young vintages for 2-3 hours to allow the full aromatic complexity to unfold. This is a cellar-worthy wine built for high-end dining experiences.
