Deep purple-colored, the 2017 Chateau Lascombes offers up a rocking bouquet of blackcurrants, mocha, espresso roast, tobacco, and cedary spice. Beautifully concentrated, medium to full-bodied, and opulent even on the palate (which isn’t the case for many wines), it's beautifully balanced, has ripe, polished tannins, and a great finish. This is a hedonistic yet beautifully balanced, stunning 2017 that will drink nicely for 20 years or more.Inc. TAX€920.66 -

The 2023 Lascombes is an incredibly classy, elegant wine. Lifted, deep aromatics make a strong first impression. Crushed flowers, mint, bright red-toned fruit, chalk and mint are beautifully delineated. This is such an elegant, refined, dynamic Lascombes. The 2023 is pure and total sensuality—a wine that very clearly opens a new chapter for this second growth.Inc. TAX€988.27 -

(6x75cl) 2017Vinous - Neal Martin (90-92)
The 2017 Lassègue was tasted twice, one sample not representative as it was too old. The second sample taken the day before, has a perfumed bouquet with iris and light incense aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannin and ample, tobacco-tinged black fruit. I really appreciate the balance and freshness of this Lassègue. It feels nicely poised with just a light graphite note poking its head above the surface towards the finish. This property, owned by the Jackson family of Kendall-Jackson/Verité fame, has great terroir and this 2017 shows it off well.Inc. TAX€312.23 -
Vinous - Neal Martin (90)
The 2018 Lassègue has a really gorgeous bouquet of luscious dark cherry fruit, cassis, crushed violets and vanilla pod. It becomes increasingly floral with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied and sweet with supple tannins. Licorice and brown spices filter through the black fruit, leading to a satin-textured finish. Very seductive and quite heady, this is a Saint-Émilion that clearly has ambitions, though overall I find it just a little too sweet.Inc. TAX€303.59 -

(1x75cl) 1961
Wine Advocate (100)
Port-like, with an unctuous texture, and a dark garnet color with considerable amber at the edge, the 1961 Latour possesses a viscosity and thickness. One of the three bottles served at the Chateau's tasting revealed a surprisingly aggressive, minty, herbaceous nose, but the other two bottles were liquid perfection, exhibiting fragrant, cedary, truffle, leather, mineral, and sweet, jammy aromatics, full-bodied, voluptuous textures, exquisite purity and concentration, and a layered, highly-nuanced finish that represents the essence of compellingly great wine. The 1961 has been fully mature for over 15 years, but it seems to get richer, holding onto its succulence and fat, and developing more aromatic nuances without losing any sweetness or concentration. An extraordinary wine, it is unquestionably one of the Bordeaux legends of the century! Anticipated maturity: now-2025Inc. TAX€4,641.73 -

Wine Advocate (94)
Tasted from my personal cellar, the 1971 Latour is undoubtedly the wine of the Medoc, and possibly the wine of the vintage (Petrus and Trotanoy are also splendid efforts). Drinkable young, it has continued to evolve, offering extraordinary aromatic complexity as well as surprisingly deep, concentrated flavors atypical for the vintage.Inc. TAX€795.98 -

Bordeaux's relatively diverse weather, particularly its rainfall, means that vintage variation can be quite broad between some years. However advances in wine making techniques, technology and investment has meant that many chateaux are still able to create very good wines in "lesser vintages". From the best vintages wines are made that are clambered for all over the world and mature excellently for many years.
This is a selection of some of our favourite vintages from Bordeaux over the last few decades, as well some more recent ones.
