                                | Tasting Note: | Wine Advocate #158 (4/2005)  Rating: 93 points  Drink: 2007-2020 A candidate for one of the top wines of the vintage, Lascombes has turned in a brilliant effort with a deep ruby/purple color as well as gorgeous aromas of plums, cassis, black cherries, and flowers. It boasts a terrific texture, medium to full body, an expansive, multi-layered mid-palate and a tremendously pure finish revealing nicely integrated wood, acidity, alcohol, and tannin. This is a beauty of precision and power. -Robert Parker
 
 Wine Spectator (3/31/2005)  Score:87
 Aromas of blackberries and lots of toasted oak. Medium-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a medium finish. Modern and well done. Best after 2007. 14,165 cases made. –JS

  Closed nose, dense, plummy. Rich, plump, opulent, full bodied, big and almost brash, massive fruit backed by firm tannins. An imposing wine. Drink 2009-25.
