In a few words ...
Made from the oldest vines in the vineyard, they produce less fruit, but offer greater complexity. Lafon-Rochet is both simple and complex, expressing black fruit aromas in most vintages. There's a real Saint-Estèphe mellowness and expression, a certain warmth and roundness born of the Merlot grape. J. Suckling : 93-94/100
Tasting notes
Appearance
Dense, dark garnet-red color, tending toward violet in its youth.
Aroma
The bouquet reveals notes of blackcurrant, violet, mocha, vanilla, spices and licorice.
Wine Fruity | Spicy
Taste
St-Estèphe wines have full-bodied tannins and therefore mature more slowly than most other Medocs. They offer black fruits, a note of freshness, often a woody or smoky aspect and a floral touch.
