Château Lassègue - 1998 - Château Lasségue
Ref: A049198
Grand Cru St. Emilion

A great year for Lassègue; ripe and rounded Merlot fruit, generous and weighty. The very impressive 1998 has a deep colour, exudes Merlot fruit on the nose and is deliciously round and full of generous ripe fruit in the mouth but with full but elegantly soft tannins. This is a property that has won many friends over the last few years.

Jean-Pierre Freylon is now being very ably assisted by his son, Erick, and they are continuing to produce some benchmark Grand Cru wines from their 23 hectares in the commune of St. Hippolyte. The vines, with an average age of 30 years, are planted in one single parcel surrounding the eighteenth century château and are grown on a wide variety of soils on south-facing hillsides in the most southerly corner of the appellation.

45% Merlot 35% Cabernet Franc 20% Cabernet Sauvignon
