"A strong effort for Lascombes the 2006 is a blend of 50% Merlot 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot...The 2006 exhibits a deep ruby/purple color along with aromas of licorice candied black cherries blackberries smoke and barbecue spices. Surprisingly opulent soft and racy but not as profoundly concentrated or dense as the 2005 this beautifully perfumed silky-textured Margaux is ideal for drinking over the next 12-15 years." 90-93 Points Wine Advocate
