"The 2016 Lascombes is done in a very modern, pushed style, with plenty of inky dark fruit, chocolate, spice and heavy torrefaction notes. It's hard to see any expression of site here. The 2016 is well made from a purely technical standpoint, but it is also not at all exciting. At this level, a wine should aspire to more. There is little doubt that Lascombes is the most anonymous wine being made in Margaux today."

"The 2016 Lascombes is grown into a gorgeous wine. Blackberry jam, chocolate, new leather, espresso and copious new oak all flesh out in this ample, resonant wine. As always Lascombes is done in a style that brings out the more lush, flamboyant side of Margaux. In this vintage, all the elements meld together effortlessly, something that isn't always the case."

"The 2016 Lascombes has a tight-knit bouquet that feels a little flightless compared to its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, and quite solid and masculine for a Margaux. The finish needs more finesse and terroir expression. Just as I did from barrel, I tasted this Margaux on three occasions in bottle and reached the same conclusion."
