Chateau Lucas - MAGNUM
Description
The area of Lussac is an up and coming satellite appellation of the renowned Saint Emilion region on the the Right Bank of Bordeaux. There is no doubt that one of Lussac’s most prized properties is Château Lucas, owned by the Vauthier family of Château Ausone fame. From just 18 hectares of vines, three cuvée are produced. The top wine, aptly called Château Lucas, is produced from a 12-hectare vineyard, comprising equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Franc. While so much of the Right Bank focuses on Merlot, the high percentage of Cabernet Franc brings a polished lift to the cuvée, vintage in and vintage out.
In the glass it opens with aromatics of raspberry and blackcurrant interlaced with plum and vanilla notes. The palate is round and balanced with flavours of earthy spices, tobacco and blackcurrants that lead into a sustained finish.
