Lasseter Paysage is a distinguished Bordeaux blend crafted by the Lasseter family, reflecting their commitment to blending artistry and organic farming. Named after the French term for "landscape painting," Paysage seamlessly combines Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec from the meticulously managed benchland plots of Justi Creek Vineyards in Sonoma Valley. Aged for 18 months in French oak, this wine presents an opulent, new-world take on St. Émilion’s winemaking tradition. It captures the essence of the vineyard’s well-drained, stony soils and highlights the Lasseters' dedication to sustainable practices and classic winemaking techniques.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Lasseter Paysage opens with expressive aromas of cassis, plum, cherry, and tobacco, complemented by rich notes of toasted oak and cocoa.On the palate, it delivers a luxurious texture with ripe, supple tannins and perfectly balanced acidity. The wine pairs exceptionally well with hearty dishes like grilled lamb chops or a savory mushroom risotto. Optimal now but capable of evolving over the next decade, Paysage will develop deeper layers of flavor with additional cellaring.
