93 from The Wine Review Online:
Although Alex Heinz, the new winemaker and general manager at Château Lascombes, did not make this wine, his hand is apparent in the blend. The engaging Chevalier de Lascombes captivates with its suave texture, emblematic of wines from Margaux. Its approachability and richness likely reflect the unusually high—for the Médoc—amount (65 percent) of Merlot in the blend. It delivers more complexity and refinement than most “second wines.” A delight to drink now, this is a great second wine.
