Lascombes 2011
CRITIC REVIEWS
James Suckling
A brightness and beauty to this wine, with mineral, berry and dark-chocolate character. Full body but reserved and integrated. Very fine for the vintage. Better than from barrel. Try in 2018.
Jane Anson
The classic Lascombes kick of glamour with its smoked liquorice and vanilla bean nose. You can drink this now although, there is concentration here, and the tannins build up through the palate, suggesting it is not quite at the right moment to show all of its potential. Black pepper, cassis, menthol in abundance. Not as generous at all as you find in 2009, 2010 or even 2012, its a different profile, but one that has a singular appeal. 80% new oak. A yield of 30hl/ha.
