expert's opinions
Another powerful and inviting black fruit nose with plenty of concentrated, leafy blackcurrant and cedar. Unmistakably claret. This has real structure with a backbone of tannins and acidity beneath fine, sweet, ripe black fruit. This needs time, but seems to have the balance and concentration necessary to evolve into a superb wine. A favourite with one or two of the group - and one guess at Latour.

Deep garnet core with thin dark brick rim. The nose takes some time to develop (even after decanting.) But it is worth the wait: a very complex nose of ground coffee beans, black truffle, wet wood and cigar box. Very Saint Estephe. The palate has moderate concentration, well-knit tannins and good acidity for a 1990. A fresh attack on the palate. A slight rustic, muscular edge gives this wine real character. Quite earthy on the finish, a little sharp and abrupt perhaps. However this is still an almighty Lafon-Rochet - certainly one of the best I have tasted. Drink now and over the next 5 years.

Fully mature, with a complex, secondary nose of tobacco, stone, cigar box, black cherry, earth and spice. Medium bodied, with some rusticity in the tannins, this is at peak, or slightly past showing its best.

A delicious Lafon Rochet that is just starting to open up. Lovely sweet cedar and cassis notes with a long finish.

A bit rustic but very concentrated. Dark ruby colour, with ripe berry and dried currant aromas. Full-bodied and chewy, with lots of fruit and a medium finish. Needs a bit of time.

Lighter than the Pavie and less sweet. Transparent and less dramatic than the Pavie, but a satisfying wine.

Château informations
Château Lafon-Rochet, Bordeaux / Saint Estèphe Grand Cru Classé 1998 Château Lafon-Rochet produces wines that are among the most consistent in the appellation. Deliberately typical of Saint Estèphe, Lafon-Rochet wines are both opulent and harmonious and can be enjoyed earlier than their neighbors. The estate offers a second wine called Les Pèlerins de Lafon-Rochet.
