Product description
Chateau Lassegue Vertical Collectors 3 Bottle Pack (2019/2020/2021) offers an exceptional journey through the premier terroir of France, situated in the renowned Saint Emilion Grand Cru appellation of Bordeaux. This historic estate, adorned with an elegant 18th-century chateau, is co-owned by the Jackson and Seillan families, who combined Californian vision with deep-rooted French tradition. Driven by the philosophy of legendary vigneron Pierre Seillan, the winery focuses on micro-terroir management to craft complex, age-worthy wines that authentically reflect the unique clay and limestone hillside soils.
Wine Description
This collectors pack showcases a fascinating progression of deep ruby and violet-hued red blends that evolve beautifully from one year to the next. Across the vertical, the aromatic profile is intensely expressive, greeting the nose with dark plums, black cherry liqueur, and cassis, seamlessly interwoven with delicate notes of rose petals, licorice, and toasted spices. On the palate, these medium- to full-bodied wines display remarkable freshness, depth, and structural precision. The velvety, Merlot-driven mid-palate reveals layers of red fruit, truffle, and an iron-rich minerality, all framed by fine-grained, powdery tannins and a long, elegant finish. Featuring a traditional varietal composition of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon, this collection boasts incredible balance and complexity, with an optimal drinking window that extends effortlessly through 2038.

The structural sophistication and vibrant acidity of these right bank blends make them a perfect accompaniment to slow-roasted pork, prime rib eye steaks, or rich duck confit. They also pair wonderfully with earthy mushroom risottos and aged, creamy cheeses like Camembert.
