Description
A rich and smooth Margaux Second Grand Cru Classé
The estate
Bearing the surname of the knight (chevalier), Antoine de Lascombes, since the 17th century, Château Lascombes has been marked by the ten generations of owners who have shaped its history. Since 2011, the mutual insurance group, MACSF, has owned this 1855 Second Grand Cru Classé.
The vineyard
Château Lascombes 2021 is a Margaux wine that stems from a 120-hectare vineyard. This terroir benefits from a tapestry of plots whose soils are composed, depending on their location, of a gravelly hilltops, clayey gravel and clay-limestone plots.
Vinification and ageing
The grapes are harvested by hand and sorted before and after destemming. The grapes are lightly crushed during the vatting process. The pre-fermentation maceration lasts 10 days at 8°C. The alcoholic fermentation is followed by a classic vinification with light daily pumping over to favour extraction. Vatting time lasts 35 days. Following malolactic fermentation in barrels, the wine is aged on its lees for 4 months.
The blend
Château Lascombes 2021 comprises a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (55%), Merlot (40%) and Petit Verdot (5%).
