Jane Anson om:
Chateau Lassegue Grand Cru Classe
Deep plum colour, confident and dominant Cabernet aromatics, violets, bright vivid fleshy dark fruits, crushed raspberries, plum, greengage and even touches of cherry pit, squid ink, liqourice root, perhaps a little more bright and crunchy fruit than in richer years, but a success. 60% new oak for ageing, 15 different forests origin for the barrels. Pierre Seillan winemaker, harvest September 24 to October 5., 3.60 pH, 45hl/h yield (after sorting), with just 0.3% chaptilisation. A great classic St Emilion.Deep plum colour, confident and dominant Cabernet aromatics, violets, bright vivid fleshy dark fruits, crushed raspberries, plum, greengage and even touches of cherry pit, squid ink, liqourice root, perhaps a little more bright and crunchy fruit than in richer years, but a success. 60% new oak for ageing, 15 different forests origin for the barrels.
