User Reviews for Château Lascombes Red Bordeaux Blend Margaux
Add your reviewColor, this wine has a ruby red color. Nose, this is indeed a modern old world wine! After many hours of decanting, this wine smells like a fruit bomb to a cretin extent. There are a lot of of black fruits coming through, blueberries are dominating, some cassis, floral aromas, some heat coming through, some earthiness and dirt. Midpalate, charcoaly flavors are vibrant here, some minimality coming through, really a modern Bordeaux, blueberries still going on. Finish, it proves that this wine is a new world! I am not getting any acidity. There are firm layered tannins going on, nice texture, nice complexity, blueberries are still dancing on my palate. I am still feeling this wine after 30 seconds of sipping it. This is a well made and balanced bottle of wine. I am 93 on this effort. Bottled at 13.5%. Happy drinking!
A very lovely smooth Bordeaux. Easy to drink. Wonderful on its own or along with food. I really enjoyed it!

Chateau Lascombes Margaux 2005 and all other wine from Chateau Lascombes are readily available to ship at discount prices. We carry many premium wine from across the world.
Chateau Lascombes is ranked in the Deuxieme (second) tier of the Medoc 1855 Classification and is a perpetual top performer among the world's greatest Bordeaux. In the monumental 2005 vintage the winemaking team of Alain Raynaud and Michel Rolland turned out what may the best wine this chateua has ever produced. Robert Parker bestowed a 95 point rating on it and said "A gorgeous example of Lascombes, the 2005, a blend of 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, continues the remarkable turn-around in quality that began five years ago. A stunningly opulent wine with a dense purple color, the 2005 possesses a beautiful perfume of spring flowers, blueberries, blackberries, creosote, and graphite, full body, silky but noticeable tannins, a layered mouthfeel, and a stunning, 45+-second finish. This is a brilliant, modern-styled Margaux that should age for 30-35 years."

Lascombes' ownership has returned this estate to its rightful place as one of the top wines of Margaux. The stunning 2005 boasts aromas of lead pencil shavings,incense, charcoal, spring flowers, blackberries, cherries, and espresso roast. A pure, fresh, full-bodied palate reveals moderate sweet tannin, a sensational, lush texture, and a blockbuster finish, but they do not compromise the floral elegance of the Margaux appellation.
