Chateau Lanessan Haut-Medoc

Bordeaux

Haut-Médoc

Firm slightly drying tannins, grilled smoked leather, fleshy blackberry and raspberry fruit. The tannins close things in on the close of play, narrowing through the palate, emphasising bitter orange and saffron, with slate and liquorice. Struggles to gain balance, but it gets there, and is a well constructed wine with Left Bank signature. 33% new oak barrels for ageing.

Inside Bordeaux

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2022 Lanessan features pronounced scents of black plum preserves, blackberries, and wild blueberries with hints of cardamom and fragrant earth. The medium-bodied palate is light on its feet, with plenty of crunchy black fruits and a soft texture, finishing with a refreshing lift.

Deep ruby plum, medium intensity, attractive vivid purple around the rim, with cloves and spiced rosemary on the opening, soft berry fruits, plenty of promise but the tannins close things down pretty quickly through the mid palate.

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2023 Lanessan slowly emerges from the glass with soft-spoken notes of fresh plums and mulberries followed by hints of Provence herbs, lavender, and tobacco leaf. The medium-bodied palate is delicately played and verges on lean, offering lightly chewy tannins and refreshing acidity, finishing on a mineral note.

The 2021 Lanessan has a medium to deep garnet-purple color. It skips out with vibrant notes of Bing cherries and fresh raspberries, with touches of lavender and tilled soil in the background. The light to medium-bodied palate is lively and light on its feet, with soft tannins and a lifted finish.

The 2020 Lanessan is deep garnet-purple in color. It springs from the glass with notions of redcurrants, kirsch, and baked plums, plus hints of Provence herbs and Ceylon tea. Light to medium-bodied, the palate is refreshing and light on its feet with delicate flavors and an herbal lift on the finish.

The 2019 Lanessan has a medium to deep garnet-purple color. It starts off quite closed, soon unfurling to offer glimpses at baked plums, boysenberry preserves, and kirsch, followed by hints of pencil lead and sauteed herbs. The medium-bodied palate has a firm, rugged texture and a good amount of uncomplicated black fruits, finishing savory.

The 2018 Lanessan is deep garnet purple in color. It delivers notes of juicy black plums and crème de cassis, with touches of menthol, cumin seed, and dried roses. Medium-bodied, the palate has impressive intensity and firm, ripe tannins, leading to a refreshingly savory finish. Nice!

Solbær, røde plommer, krydder, blyantspiss og et hint av sedertre på duft.

Smak av røde bjørnebær, plommer, og integrerte kryddertoner. Pen syre og strukturerte tanniner. 

Expert

En utviklet og kompleks Bordeaux til en god pris. Duft av solbær, sedertre, krydder, tobakk og jordlighet. Middels fyldig med god syre. Bløte tanniner og utviklet jordlig frukt med preg av krydder og sedertre.

Lukt: vanilje, bringebær(lyse bær)

Smak: vanilje, vinen sitter lenge, men kan være litt mer spennende. 

Tobakk, tjære, lær. Fortsatt fin frukt. Utviklet og avslepne tanniner. Balansert. Lang.

A non-classified wine from an almost 60 year old often-forgotten vintage shouldn't hold out much hope for an enjoyable tasting experience, but this is drinking beautifully right now. Melted tannins, finessed wild strawberry and blackberry fruits with flecks of mandarin, tobacco and saffron, this is delicate, with a cushion of air, still delivering. Not ex-château, but exceptional storage conditions may have helped, as might its location on the borders of St Julien, but I would say definitely worth tracking down, as there are numerous wines that are still going strong from 1967. Lanessan in 1967 was owned by the Bouteiller family (as was Pichon Baron at the time), as it was until 2022, when bought by Treasury Wine Estates.
