WINEMAKER NOTES:
The Chateau Lanessan 2019 is an intense wine with a purple color, and aromas of black fruit and floral nuances. A lively attack then gives way to a silky structure on the palate. The Chateau Lanessan 2019 is a balanced, powerful and fresh wine on the finish.
Cabernet sauvignon (54%), merlot (36%) and petit verdot (10%).
TASTING NOTES:
Currant, lead pencil and fresh rose-petal aromas follow through to a full body, round and nicely chewy tannins and a long finish. Balanced and polished.
- James Suckling, 93 pts.
Inky medium to full intensity purple colour, this is an excellent Lanessan, stuffed full of Haut-Médoc character. Really does a good job of balancing fruit tannins and acidities, without straying too far into any one territory. Cassis and bilberry are the dominant fruits, slightly rustic in the right way, and good lift through the finish. Another impressive vintage from winemaker Paz Espejo.
- Decanter, 91 pts.
