Chateau Lascombes
Margaux • Deuxième Cru Classé 1855
"The elegance of a Second Growth: where the architecture of the Margaux terroir achieves its silkiest and most contemporary expression."
Heritage and Exceptional Terroir
Located in the heart of the Margaux AOC, Chateau Lascombes is distinguished by possessing one of the most extensive and geologically diverse vineyards in the Médoc. Its terroir is a mosaic of Quaternary gravels and deep clays, allowing Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon to coexist in an unusual balance for the Left Bank.
As a Deuxième Cru Classé, a title granted in the historic 1855 Classification, Lascombes represents the aristocracy of Bordeaux. Under current technical direction, the winery has perfected an oenological precision that highlights the aromatic finesse of violet, a hallmark of the great wines of this appellation.

For young vintages, we recommend decanting for 1 to 2 hours. As the WSET suggests, aeration allows the structure of a Grand Cru to open up and soften its tannins before serving.
