Product detailed description
Château Lanessan 2019 is a red wine from the Haut-Médoc appellation in Bordeaux, which stands out for its richness and elegance. This vintage is appreciated for its balance and fullness. The wine has a deep red color and offers an intense aroma of black fruit, spices and soft woody notes, which it acquired thanks to careful maturation in oak barrels. On the palate, the wine is structured, with silky tannins and a long finish.
To fully enjoy its delicate nuances, it is recommended to serve the wine at a temperature of 16 to 18 ° C and decant it about 30 minutes before consumption, so that its aromatic components can fully develop. Château Lanessan 2019 goes well with dishes with strong flavors, such as duck breast with porcini mushrooms, roasted lamb chop with herbs or grilled entrecôte. Regional pairings include duck confit or a cheese board with Cantal or Saint-Nectaire.

Château Lanessan
The history of Château Lanessan is remarkable—it has been owned by just two families since 1310. Until 1793, it was owned by the descendants of Henry de Lanessan, after which it was purchased by Bordeaux wine merchant Jean Delbos. At that time, the vineyard covered 24 hectares compared to today's 80 hectares.
Lanessan has always had an excellent reputation and was ranked among the fourth growths in 1814. Unfortunately for this château, in 1855, the then-owner Louis Delbos refused to submit samples for the Paris exhibition, excluding Lanessan from the future Grand Cru Classé classification, where it would have otherwise been included.
The vines for the wine labeled Château Lanessan ripen on 45 hectares of this area. The vineyards are located on a single contiguous parcel in the Haut-Médoc appellation, adjacent to the St. Julien appellation.
Since 1999, a second wine, Les Calèches de Lanessan, has been produced. In 2004, grape sorting was improved with its own two-stage system. In 2010, further progress was made in vineyard work thanks to soil analysis, and progressive methods were introduced in the cellar for vinification and wine aging.
