Producer InformationChâteau Lascombes is a well-regarded and critically well-received wine estate in the Margaux appellation of the Haut-Médoc, just north of Bordeaux city. The estate produces a classic Bordeaux Blend wine known for its deep colour, rich texture, ripe fruit and elegant tannic structure. It was ranked a second growth in the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. The vineyard is situated in the northwest of the appellation, neighboring châteaux Labégorce, Ferrière and La Gurgue. The château building and winery are in northern Margaux town, just one kilometer (0.6 miles) west of Château Margaux. The estate vineyards cover 120 hectares (nearly 300 acres) in Margaux with a parcel of ten hectares (25 acres) in the Haut-Médoc appellation. It is one of the largest wine estates in the wider region. The vineyard has three distinct parts of roughly equal size; a gravelly mound on which Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot are planted; a clay-gravel area of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon; and clay-limestone plots better suited to Merlot. Unusually for Margaux, Merlot accounts for around 50 percent of plantings with Cabernet Sauvignon playing second fiddle along with a small amount of Petit Verdot. Despite this, the grand vin tends to feature around 55 percent Cabernet Sauvignon.
