Tasting note |
There has been a total transformation in quality here recently. Modern, impressive wines are now being made here which are often criticised for not being very Margaux-like. Nevertheless, they are much better than the weedy efforts produced at Lascombes under the former regime. This is a large vineyard of 118 hectares that is planted with a high percentage of Merlot - 50% - along with 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. |
