2018 Les Tours de Laroque, Château Laroque, Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé
Château Laroque's fabulous second label and from a vintage considered one of the Right Bank's best-ever for merlot. A charming, expressive combination of juicy, dark fruit, fine tannins, subtle notes of roasted coffee, smoky, spicy oak, and an enduring, velvety finish. To Saint-Émilion terroir in gorgeous form.
Critic's reviews (previous vintage):
"A fresh and lively style with fresh, red flowers and ripe, red cherry aromas, and hints of raspberries too. The palate has a juicy fresh feel. The vibrant, light tannins carry flavors of red cherries and red plums. A neat, finish that's on point. Drink or hold."
91 points, James Suckling
"The 2015 Les Tours de Laroque Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, no less, still needs time but is well worth tucking away for a year at this price."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator Magazine
