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. |

Jeb Dunnuck (93-95)Coming from the home estate of Pierre Seillan, who’s behind the incredible wines of Vérité in Sonoma, the 2019 Lassègue sports a deep purple color as well as a great nose of blueberries, mulberries, tobacco, dusty earth, and flowery incense. It’s an exotic, full-bodied Saint-Emilion with beautiful balance, plenty of ripe tannins, the vibrancy and freshness of the vintage, and a great finish. It’s a beautifully complex 2019 that’s going to evolve nicely for two decades or more. |

Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (95)Beautifully fresh aromatics, this is a big wine, full of depth and velvety plush texture, rich mouthfeel through the mid palate, with a mix of red and black fruits along with mandarin peel and pomegranate that add freshness. Careful precision, juicy expression of the fruit, this draws out through the palate with sappy tannins and a touch of astringency on the finish. The viticulture, as you would expect here, was precise and informed by their long experience in California, no trimming, with high canopy for the shading, with as little interference as possible (they say 'don't demand too much of the vine in these kind of vintages'). 38hl/h yields, helped by vines with an average age of 60 years, 65% new oak, 15 different forests, 24ha estate. No added acidity. 20th anniversary vintage of the Seillan and Jackson family at Lassegue, first year as Grand Cru ClassŽ. 3.67ph, harvest 15 to October1. Nicolas Seillan now director. |
