Acquired by Jacky Lorenzetti at the beginning of 2022, Château Lafon-Rochet ensures a smooth transition... Surrounded by Lafite Rothschild and Cos d'Estournel, on a fabulous terroir, this Grand Cru Classé of Médoc should be closely followed by lovers of classicism and purity, as its immense potential is undeniable!
Advised by Jean-Claude Berrouet, a prominent figure in Bordeaux consultancy, the wines have gained precision and delight with their powerful and distinguished texture. In recent years, the estate has further enhanced its game, notably beginning a conversion to organic farming across the entire domain.
For this second vintage fully managed by Jacky Lorenzetti, the cru refines its style, seeking additional density while maintaining balance and the vibrancy of its fruity notes. A wine with clear contours and a precise palate, rated 92-94/100 by RVF.
