Tasting Notes and Scores

93/95 AG

The 2023 Lafon-Rochet is a promising wine. Today it shows terrific depth driven by an elevated presence of Cabernet Sauvignon and a healthy dollop of Petit Verdot. Dark blue-toned fruit lavender licorice and dried herbs show tons of character. There's plenty of Lafon-Rochet finesse but with an added kick of textural richness not found in the wines made during the Tesseron era. This comes together beautifully with a bit of time in the glass. 2030-2053

Antonio Galloni

93/94 JS

This is very St.-Estephe, with blackcurrant, lead pencil, graphite and crushed stone. Medium-bodied, linear and structured. Excellent finish. 64% cabernet sauvignon, 29% merlot, 4% petit verdot and 3% cabernet franc. 13.35% alcohol. 3.75 pH.

James Suckling

91/93 RP

Generous and layered the 2023 Lafon-Rochet offers up aromas of blackberries cassis incense and burning embers followed by a medium to full-bodied rich and enveloping palate that's gourmand and charming concluding with a gently minty finish. Like the 2023 this represents a richer more demonstrative style for this Saint-Estèphe property where Christophe Congé and his team are rehabilitating the vineyards.

Wine Advocate

91/93 NM

The 2023 Lafon-Rochet was picked from September 13 to October 5 at 42hL/ha with no saignée. It contains 4% Petit Verdot as there was more water during the growing season (which Petit Verdot needs_. Matured in 40% new oak this has quite an intense bouquet with mainly black fruit hints of graphite and chimney soot nicely focused though it needs time to absorb the wood. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins that frame the layered blackberry and raspberry fruit laced with white pepper and pencil shavings. This errs slightly toward Pauillac on the finish which is no surprise given its proximity. Displaying moderate length this is a fine but grippy denser Lafon-Rochet that should give 20 years or more of drinking pleasure.
