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.

James Suckling

This is full and substantial, with firm tannins and a crunchy finish. Lots of blue fruit, blackberry, crushed-stone and mineral character. Very structured. 99% merlot and 1% cabernet franc.

Cask sample. Good colour. Dark-fruit aroma with a fresh, chalky edge. Smooth, well-worked tannins and persistence on the finish. Limestone terroir clearly marked. Perhaps a tad light in fruit weight. (JL)
