An expressive nose, on freshness, with crunchy ripped fruits, red berries (blackcurrant, strawberry, raspberry). A clear attack, fresh with spreading tannins and a fine structure. Smooth and complex finales with a lovely fruity aromatic aftertaste, cinnamon.
64% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Petit Verdot
A gem from Saint-Estèphe is the 2014 Château Lafon-Rochet and it’s certainly one of the top wines from this appellation in 2014. Elegant, medium to full-bodied, beautifully pure and refined, it offers impressive notes of sweet dark fruits, crème de cassis, classy oak and a kiss of minerality. It’s the finesse and quality of tannin, as well as its solid mid-palate, that sets this beauty apart. This wine is 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and the rest Petit Verdot, and it’s hidden little gem worth tracking down!
