Chateau Lascombes 2021 (1x75cl)

Lascombes is a Margaux second growth that's known for leaning more on Merlot than many of its Left Bank neighbours, alongside Cabernet Sauvignon, which usually gives it a slightly softer, more perfumed style.

Fits nicely at a dinner party where you want something elegant but not overly tannic.

Tasting notes

Margaux reds with a Merlot-leaning blend typically show red and dark berry fruit with floral, perfumed notes and softer tannins than a Cabernet-dominant style.
