2019 Château Lafon-Rochet Cru Classé St-Estèphe
£45.00
“Brilliant stuff, the 2019 Château Lafon-Rochet shows the best of the vintage with its pure, precise, elegant, yet at the same time concentrated style. Showing lots of ripe currant, plum, tobacco, Asian spice, and cedar pencil aromatics, it’s medium to full-bodied, has nicely integrated acidity, and just seamless tannins. It’s beautifully done and well worth seeking out.”
In 2021, Château Lafon-Rochet was acquired by the Lorenzetti family. It joins another trio of Bordeaux estates in the Vignobles Cruse-Lorenzetti portfolio: Châteaux d’Issan, Pédesclaux, and Lilian Ladouys. After a 24-year stint at neighbouring estate Château Lafite-Rothschild, Christophe Congé is now the Managing Director at Château Lafon-Rochet.
