Chevalier de Lascombes serves as the official second wine of Margaux Second Growth Château Lascombes. Derived from the estate's gravel and clay-limestone soils across the Margaux appellation, the 2019 vintage captures a balanced expression of ripe Merlot and structured Cabernet Sauvignon. Crafted to offer earlier accessibility than the grand vin, it maintains classical Left Bank proportion, refined tannins, and polished wood integration suitable for medium-term cellaring.
Tasting notes
A classic 2019 Margaux second wine typically shows vibrant dark plum, cassis, and subtle cedar notes on the nose. The palate generally offers fleshy dark fruits framed by silky, fine-grained tannins, balanced acidity, and an understated savory finish.
