Note di degustazione
Inky plum colour, the deepest in the vertical at this point, autumnal fruit and grilled spice come in rich waves on the nose and plump textured blackberry, blueberry, creme de cassis, autumn hedgerow, tobacco, pencil lead, cigar box and grilled spice. 35 days maceration, 70% new oak, inky in colour and expression, this is a delicious wine, full of potential, with decades of ageing ahead. Not quite settled into itself yet, I would definitely give this another 3 or 4 years. Captures the pleasure of Lascombes while holding on to the finesse of the appellation. Delphine Barboux promoted to technical director from this 2016 vintage.

The 2016 Lascombes was tasted from two bottles, as the first felt very subdued. The bouquet on the second is high-toned with black cherries, cassis, dried blood and crushed stone aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with toasty oak, and grippy in the mouth, but here the wood tannins rather dominate the finish. So-so. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting.
Tasted blind. Blackish crimson. Toasty and very voluptuous and sweet. Twentieth-century style! Rather cocoa-like. (JR)
