New leather, wet earth, baked blackberry, cocoa, and cigar box aromas waft from the glass. Balanced, nuanced, and bursting with a bouquet of deep, lasting pleasure.

Grand Cru. Chateau Lascombes has been producing fine wine on the same location for about 300 years or so. In the 1855 Classification it was ranked as one of the 15 “Second Growths” of Bordeaux, which meant it was one of the 20 best vineyards in France and therefore - at least according to the French - the world. It’s had its ups and downs over the years but has been a top performer in most rankings for the last 30 years or so. At one point in the 1970’s I believe it was owned by one of the worlds best known wine critics, Alexis Lichine (with financial backing from David Rockefeller). I think it was bought from them in the late 1990’s or so. Known for its smooth flavors and never overly tannic, I would bet it tasted great! Parker gave this one a “94” when he tasted it and said to drink it between 2014 and 2020. In Honor of Nick!
