Lafon Rochet 2016

In the Glass

The Story

Lafon-Rochet 2016 shows Saint-Estèphe's commanding structure with the polish of an excellent Bordeaux vintage.

Saint-Estèphe can feel more firmly structured than Margaux, and Lafon-Rochet often shows that character through concentrated Cabernet fruit and measured savoury detail.

The Producer

Château Lafon-Rochet is a classified-growth estate in Saint-Estèphe.

Place & Terroir

Saint-Estèphe's clay-and-gravel soils bring firm structure and reliable depth to Cabernet and Merlot.

Perfect Pairings

Roast lamb, grilled beef, wild mushrooms or a savoury slow-cooked dish.

Serve around 16–18°C, with air for youthful structured bottles.
