The 2020 Château Lafon-Rochet is a structured and polished Saint-Estèphe with vibrant red and black fruit, graphite, and savory herbal lift. Crafted by Basile Tesseron in his final vintage before the estate changed hands, this wine captures the classic style with modern refinement. Firm tannins, crushed stone minerality, and notes of eucalyptus and pepper add complexity and aging potential. A wine of serious depth and poise, it pairs beautifully with roast meats or grilled vegetables and will reward patient cellaring.
