The 2018 Lascombes is deep garnet-purple in color and a little reduced to begin, offering tar and scorched earth notions over an emerging core of baked blackcurrants, plum preserves and charcuterie plus hints of bay leaves and underbrush. Full, richly fruited and laden with ripe black fruits and earthy suggestions, it has a solid foundation of firm, grainy tannins and finishes long and savory.

The 2018 Château Lascombes showed nicely, possessing plenty of richness as well as a light, elegant, weightless profile. Classy notes of black and blue fruits, smoked earth, and ample minerality all give way to a medium to full-bodied Margaux that’s not a heavyweight yet shines for its balance and purity. It’s going to fill out nicely with 3-5 years of cellaring. - jebdunnuck.com, May 2019

Darkest cherry colour with black core. Spicy and marked by the oak on the nose with a note of dark chocolate. Lighter on the palate than I expected, relatively delicate tannins and not a lot of fruit flavour at the core but handled gently enough to be just about in balance, if a little oaky.Julia Harding, jancisrobinson.com, April 2019
