Description

chevron-down

The Lassegue has a beautiful ruby red color with aromas of plums, wild berries, pencil shavings and dark chocolate on the nose. Medium to full-bodied on the palate with lively, powdery tannins, bright acidity and an elegant profile. Give this wine a few more years of aging and you will be rewarded. Like many wines from 2021, it is exceptionally fragrant, elegant and already quite drinkable.

About Château Lassègue

Château Lassègue is a prestigious wine estate located in the Saint-Émilion appellation, one of the most renowned wine regions of Bordeaux, France. The château is known for producing elegant, expressive wines that reflect the unique characteristics of the Saint-Émilion terroir. Château Lassègue has a long and rich history dating back to the 18th century. In 2003, the château was purchased by Pierre Seillan, an experienced winemaker known for his work in both Bordeaux and California.

Vineyards

The vineyards of Château Lassègue cover approximately 24 hectares and are ideally situated on the slopes of the Côte de Saint-Émilion. The vineyards are planted with traditional Bordeaux grape varieties:

  • Merlot (about 60%)
  • Cabernet Franc (about 35%)
  • Cabernet Sauvignon (about 5%)

The vineyards benefit from an excellent terroir, consisting of clay-limestone soils that provide good drainage and favourable ripening of the grapes. This terroir contributes to the complexity, minerality and structure of the wines.
