2001 Lafon Rochet - Saint Estephe, Bordeaux, France

2007 April - Floral and fruity flavours with an interesting mineral hint. Round body with well balanced tannins. Unfortunately to my view, 2001 Lafon Rochet’s texture is insufficiently tonic on the finish. Still a quality wine which should continue to improve for another 5-10 years time.
