  混浊浑浊的深宝石红色，闻香有灌木丛，木质，融合的香料感，还有酸果，李子和青椒气息，入口酸度中，单宁紧致，糊嘴，颗粒细腻，雪松混合着醋栗，香气集中，酒风强劲，后段是香草巧克力，酒体紧致，口感粘稠，余味香草奶油。法国橡木桶影响明显的一支酒，结构不小，还在青少年阶段，没有进入适饮期，现在喝起来也展现出很好的平衡感和精致的细节。

  Blackish ruby color very young and less open than the 2015 very tight. Decanted and drank over two hours. Nose of perfumed cassis, sweet tobacco and dark berries. Medium to full bodied, solid structure and built for the long haul finishes long, dusty and tannic. Revisit in 5 years.

  No notes taken. I only got a tiny sip of this, so this is in no way a comprehensive review but as it showed excellent, I still wanted to record it. This is another proof that the 2016 is a fantastic vintage, probably the best one in decades. What is true for the vintage, is true for this wine: A good level of complexity, high precision and purity, the right level of ripeness, high freshness and luxurious tannins, and of course the most beautiful balance. While some other 2016 might have closed down, the Lascombes, as is often true with Margaux wines, is open for business from an early age on. Easily 93+ pts.
  
  Decanting: Not decanted, no extensive decanting needed.

  Pronounced nose intensity with black fruits, black currant, toast, spices, vanilla. Medium+ acidity and high tannin. Tannin is velvety.

  Aromatic, big nose, slightly inky, fresh, blue and black berries, slightly cedary, nascently floral. Obviously still with oak to integrate which will take some time but it's balanced nicely and I think ultimately this will come good.
