SECOND GROWTHS, CRU BOURGEOIS AND SECOND LABELS FROM THE RECENTLY SHIPPED AND HIGHLY REGARDED 2003 VINTAGE
Château Lascombes--Vintage 2003
Margaux, 2me cru classé
Tasting Note: In less than five years this property has emerged as one of the appellation's up and coming stars thanks to the infusion of money from the American conglomerate, Colony Capital, as well as the braintrust that now oversees the winemaking, Yves Vatelot (of Reignac fame) and the internationally renowned oenologist, Michel Rolland. The dark plum/ruby-hued, open-knit 2003 offers a big, sweet nose of barbeque smoke, plum liqueur, crème de cassis, flowers, new saddle leather, and damp earth. Loads of black fruits, a full-bodied palate impression, low acidity, and a savory, expansive mouthfeel suggest it can be drunk in 2-3 years, or cellared for 15+. 92 Points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 164, April 2006
