Château Lassègue
About Château Lassègue
A beautiful 18th-century property found in the southwest hills of Saint-Émilion commune, Château Lassègue is blessed with perfect sun exposure, incidentally, the inspiration for their emblem, producing one of the most opulent and rich Merlot-based clarets in the appellation. Apart from its ideal sun exposure which guarantees optimal phenolic ripeness, the soil here is mostly clay and limestone planted with 50-60-year-old vines. There is little doubt that this combination of terroir has almost limitless potential, and the capable estate gives rise to wines of exquisite minerality and impeccable balance.

Vinous - Neal Martin (90)The 2018 Lassègue has a really gorgeous bouquet of luscious dark cherry fruit, cassis, crushed violets and vanilla pod. It becomes increasingly floral with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied and sweet with supple tannins. Licorice and brown spices filter through the black fruit, leading to a satin-textured finish. Very seductive and quite heady, this is a Saint-Émilion that clearly has ambitions, though overall I find it just a little too sweet. |

James Suckling (94-95)This is a very intense, focused red with blackberry and spice character. I am impressed with the polished tannins and flavorful finish. One of the best I have seen from here for a while. |
