The estate's great wine comes from the oldest vines. Château Lafon-Rochet 2022 is a wine that is both simple and complex, it expresses aromas of black fruits and a particular expression of Saint-Estèphe, a certain warmth and roundness with finesse from the Merlot grape variety. Notes of currants, leafy tobacco, cassis, graphite, and crushed stone nuances all emerge from the 2022 vintage - a seriously good, concentrated, powerful expression from this château that has beautiful purity, ripe, building, yet substantial tannins, and a great finish. Producer Notes
Blend: 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc Chateau Lafon-Rochet Grand Cru Classé 2022
97 Points - Vinous
The 2022 Lafon-Rochet is fabulous. Once again, Lafon-Rochet is the most elegant wine in Saint-Estèphe. There's a bit more richness and mid-palate intensity than in the past, likely a combination of the year and the approach of the new team headed by Technical Director Christophe Congé, who was formerly at Lafite-Rothschild. The 2022 signals a new era for the château that is likely to see a greater focus on selection and a slightly richer style. Even so, the signatures of Lafon-Rochet are evident. It's an exciting time. –Antonio Galloni
