Chateau Lafon Rochet 2022 750ml
$242.00 price per bottle
France, Bordeaux, Saint-Estèphe. Château Lafon Rochet is a historic Fourth Growth estate in the Médoc, with roots dating back to the 17th century. The Tesseron family owned the property for decades before selling to businessman Jacky Lorenzetti in 2021, who also owns Château Pédesclaux and shares in Château d’Issan. The estate is renowned for combining traditional winemaking with a renewed modern vision under its new leadership. Wine Description The 2022 vintage presents a deep, intense ruby colour with purple hues. The nose offers expressive aromas of ripe blackcurrant, plum, damson, and subtle cedar, accented by herbal and smoky nuances. On the palate, it reveals a full-bodied structure with velvety tannins, vibrant freshness, and layers of dark fruit, graphite, cocoa, and spice. Accolades Vinous – 95+ points. James Suckling – 94+ points. Jeb Dunnuck – 93+ points. Food Pairing This structured yet refined Saint-Estèphe pairs beautifully with grilled ribeye, roast lamb with rosemary, or rich mushroom ragout. The wine’s dark fruit intensity and firm tannic backbone also complement aged cheeses like Comté or Pecorino.
