Merchant's description

The 2014 Château Lafon-Rochet is a well-crafted blend comprising 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 4% Petit Verdot. Representing a commendable example of this classic Bordeaux vintage, particularly successful in the northern Médoc, it displays a youthful deep colour with lingering hints of purple. The aromatic profile is characterized by notes of cassis and cedar. Abundant ripe tannins and balanced acidity contribute to a wine that exhibits overall harmony and plenty of flavour.
