Højrebreddens hemmelige kultvin...

Tag et perfekt sydvendt La Côte-terroir med 60 år gamle vinstokke lige ved siden af Tertre Rotebeauf... døbt af Suckling som St-Émilions Pétrus! Giv det til superstjernen Pierre Seillan. "Mikroterroir-manden" bag de 15 gange 100 point-triumferende Verité-vine... Hvad får du?

En mørk, mega-mineralsk super-Saint-Émilion...  Årets klart bedste Best Buy: 

“95 points. Just dripping with salinity from crushed stones, graphite and slate - a physical presence that balances beautifully with the fleshy black cherry and damson fruits, and the chocolate shavings. An excellent quality Lassegue..." - Decanter

Pierre Seillan kom til Lassègue få år før seneste St-Émilion-klassifikation. Derfor hedder flagskibet her endnu ikke 1er Grand Cru Classé. Det smager bare sådan og koster en brøkdel.

Update: Lassegue er fra 2022 officielt klassificeret Grand Cru Classé. Det manglede da bare...

Anmeldelser af Château Lassegue Saint-Émilion Grand Cru 2020

95/100 Decanter
"A measured yet powerful grip holds interest from beginning to end of the palate. This is just dripping with salinity from crushed stones, graphite and slate - a physical presence that balances beautifully with the fleshy black cherry and damson fruits, and the chocolate shavings. An excellent quality Lassegue, hard hitting and muscular but with pace and persistency. 52% new oak barrels (from 15 different forests - always a key signature of this estate's ageing policy). 3.6pH, average vine age between 50 and 60 years old."

"Very deep and intense showing notes of black prunes, blackberries, fondant chocolate and peppermint. Full bodied, perfectly extracted and polished tannins and a warm, enveloping finale."

94-95/100 James Suckling
"The energy and focus of this wine is excellent with blackberry, salt, chalk and stone aromas and flavors. Some tar, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied with fine, firm tannins and a long, flavorful finish."

92-94/100 Robert Parker
"Deep purple-black colored, the 2020 Lassegue needs a little swirling to begin, to unlock bright, cheery scents of fresh blackberries, black raspberries and redcurrants, plus hints of black cherry preserves, charcoal, woodsmoke and underbrush with a waft of tapenade. The medium to full-bodied palate has a firm structure of ripe, rounded tannins and just enough freshness to support the generous black fruits, finishing long and earthy."

92-94/100 Jeb Dunnuck
“The 2020 Château Lassegue is another brilliant Saint-Emilion in the making. Offering a full-bodied, rich, textured, and at the same time pure and precise style on the palate, it has classic notes of ripe black cherries, charcoal, crushed stone, and truffly earth. Emerging from the home estate of Pierre Seillan, who’s the force behind the Verite wines in Sonoma, this beautiful 2020 is going to require just 2-4 years of bottle age yet keep for 15+.”
