The largest wine estate in Saint-Émilion, Château Laroque have built a reputation for creating bright, spicy and distinctive wines that are imbued with a fresh salinity that remains a hallmark of this estate. Its 61-hectare vineyard is planted with Merlot (c.87%), Cabernet Franc (c.11%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (c.2%). Only 27 hectares of vineyard are used to produce their top wine which are located on deep clay-rich soils close to the illustrious Château Troplong Mondot. Their grand vin is vinified in cement vats and aged for 12 months in 50% new French oak barrels. With perfect ageing capabilities, Château Laroque reaches its peak between 5-20 years of bottle maturing.

Antonio Galloni

The 2021 Laroque is classy, elegant and polished. A wine of stature and breeding, Laroque is a quintessentially finessed Saint-Emilion. Silky tannins wrap around a core of dark cherry, plum, spice, new leather, licorice and menthol. All the elements are very nicely balanced.

Tasted blind. Some ripeness and freshness too. But a bit tough on the end and without a real fruity core in the middle. (JR)
