Description

Château Lafon-Rochet 2011 - Saint-Estèphe 4ᵉ Grand Cru Classé

Origine & Élaboration

Château Lafon-Rochet is a wine estate located in Saint-Estèphe, in the Médoc region. The 2011 vintage is made from a blend of 59% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot. 

Wine Tasting Profile

    - Colour : Deep garnet red with purplish tints.

    - Nose : Complex aromas of ripe black fruit (blackberry, blackcurrant), black cherry, accompanied by spicy notes, pepper, dried violet and hints of wood.
