1995 Chateau Lascombes, Margaux

1995 Chateau Lascombes, Margaux

The 1995 Lascombes is now softer and full of mature nuances. The color is slightly brick-ish. The nose of leather, tobacco and cedar. It is so scented that it oozes out of the glass the body is medium but the wine is so flavorful and balanced that it is a great joy to drink it. I am so lucky that there are still four bottles left from the original half case. At age 26, this wine is at its peak and will hold well over the next five to ten years. Please take note that this wine was bought in premier and has been in a cook cellar ever since release. The less ideal cellaring condition would mean hastening of maturity.
