aromas of cassis, plums and licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, deep palate with good concentration, lively acids and plenty of powdery structuring tannin.
The 2020 Lafon-Rochet opens in the glass with aromas of cassis, plums and licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, deep palate with good concentration, lively acids and plenty of powdery structuring tannin that asserts itself on the finish. This, too, is more structured than its 2019 counterpart and will require a bit of patience. robertparker.com

A deep nose of fresh fruit aromas. Chiselled, intense and suave on the palate, with a balance and refinement rarely seen. Creamy and structured.
A well-balanced, beautifully-poised wine.
The palate is full-bodied and powerful, but remains fresh: the balance is perfect. A cuvée that needs time but is already magical, magnificent!
This estate is now enjoying its finest run since its glory days in the 1970s, and the 2020 Giscours is excellent.
Refined, lively, serious, long finish; pairs well with duck.
A homogeneous, well-balanced wine.
A brilliant vintage, made for patient connoisseurs.
This cuvée comes from a selection of two plots planted with Grenache, one in 1900 "Charbonnières", the other in 1949 "Esqueirons".
