Gaia Gaja tells me that the clusters harvested were perfect in appearance

Dried black cherries and a cocoa dusting complicate dark depths of ashen stone and savory herbs as the 2019 Rosso di Montalcino smolders up from the glass

but thanks to high acidity 22 grams of residual sugar only subtly make their presence known

Perfumed mid palate and a little drying on the finish

Best from 2021 through 2038

Chateau, Lascombes other_regions_australia Gaia Gaja tells me thatThe 2022 La Cte de Lascombes is just as impressive as it was when I tasted it a few months ago. Dense and explosive, the 2022 possesses notable textural richness and pure power. The 2022 was vinified by the former team here, so it naturally shows considerable extraction and a much stronger oak imprint than is the case with the vintages that follow it. Black cherry, plum, chocolate, licorice and espresso stain the palate on the potent finish.
