In 2005 Chateau Lascombes produced a stunningly opulent wine that continues the remarkable turn-around in quality that began five years ago. Chevalier de Lascombes, the second wine, enjoys many of the same attributes of the famous Grand Cru Classe, but is more fruit forward and supple and will be delicious for at least 5 to 10 years. At less than half the price of the Grand Cru it is an outstanding bargain and is a “must buy”.

- Margaux is the southern most of all of the appellations of the Haut Medoc. Located near St. Julien, it has more cru classe producers than the other four villages of the area.

2005 Lascombes
Named after its first owner, Chevalier de Lascombes, this Margaux ranked Second Growth vineyard produces powerful, tannic, yet elegant wines. Once owned by Chaix d'Est-Ange, a General to Napoleon III, Lascombes encountered a revival in the mid 20th century under the control of Alexis Lichine.
