生於 1625 年的 Antoine de Lascombes 騎士是力士金最早的莊主，力士金 (Lascombes) 正是來自他的姓氏。他的後人，波爾多議會顧問、海軍將領團的國王代理人和院士 Jean-François de Lascombes 將財產投資於這座酒莊，致力提升葡萄酒品質。
在 1855 波爾多分級中，力士金酒莊被評為二級列莊。力士金的副牌酒 Chevalier de Lascombes 絕對不是小孩子，它同樣擁有美麗的光芒。雖然比正牌酒力量略減，但相對溫和，能於較早時間享用，陳年能力亦至少有十年之久。

極具吸引力。溫暖的石頭、黑莓和美妙的烘烤橡木。飽滿、多汁、沉厚，單寧細膩，餘韻美妙。非常平衡、慷慨。
A central figure in the history of Château Lascombes was Knight Antoine de Lascombes. As well as being the château’s first recorded owner, it was he who gave Lascombes its name. Born in 1625, he was to forge the destiny of the estate. One of his descendants, Jean-François de Lascombes, a councillor at the Bordeaux parliament, Crown Prosecutor at the Admiralty and member of the Academy, dedicated his fortune to the upkeep of the château and most particularly to enhancing the quality of its wines. In 1855, Château Lascombes was ranked as a Second Classified Growth in the classification of the Grand Crus Classés.
Chevalier de Lascombes, the second in the Lascombes family is no baby brother. This wine is selected from batches that were not marked out for the First Wine. This “other” wine of Château Lascombes has undeniable charm and offers obvious drinking pleasure. Less powerful than the First Wine but more suave, this wine can be consumed earlier, in its first ten years.

(James Suckling's rating: 92 points)
This offers very attractive warm stones, spicy, brambly berries and nicely played, toasty oak. The palate has a bold, juicy and deep-set array of fine and sleek tannins that build nice and even into the finish. Great balance and lots to offer.
