Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2016 Lafon Rochet is a blend of 25% Merlot, 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Petit Verdot and 6% Cabernet Franc cropped at 46 hectoliters per hectare and matured in 50% new oak. The harvest was between 1 October and 20 October. The alcohol is 13.6%, which is just a little higher here than say Cos d'Estournel or Montrose. It has a very succinct bouquet with blackberry, bilberry and light oyster shell aromas, classic in style, more reserved than I found the 2015 Lafon Rochet last year. The palate is medium-bodied with powerful tannin on the entry, a keen line of acidity (3.65 pH), fine symmetry with a pleasant rondeur on the finish sprinkled with black pepper and tobacco. This is a very fine Lafon Rochet from Basile Tesseron and his team.

James Suckling

An explosion of all manner of black berries with discreet, toasty and smoky oak, makes this a joyful St.-Estèphe. Then the great balance of ripeness, lively acidity and velvety tannins come together beautifully at the elegant finish to make this the best wine from this producer in modern times. Needs two or three years to soften.

VertdeVin

The nose is elegant , racy and offers a beautiful aromatic range, richness (but all in elegance ), finesse, power as well as a good finesse of the grain. It reveals notes of cassis, ripe cherry and more slightly wild red berries associated with small touches of flowers (violet, cornflower , lilac ), discreet hints of gray pepper / Cuben pepper , spices as well as a discreet /imperceptible hint of saffron . The palate is fruity , well-balanced , elegant , fine and offers a beautiful definition /finesse, a fine acidulous frame, suavity , gourmandize , tension as well as a very beauytiful finesse of the grain. On the palate this wine expresses notes of blackberry , cassis and more slightly cherry, raspberry associated with fine touches of juicy /ripe blueberry as well as discreet hints of chocolate , toasted and an imperceptible hint of Bourbon vanilla . Tannins are fine and elegant . The finish is very finely powerful . A beautiful persistence ! A beautiful success !

Wine Enthusiast

Now producing impressive wines, this estate has made a firm, rich wine in this vintage. Its tannins are very present, but they have a velvet edge that is immediately attractive. Not that the wine won't age: its structure and good acidity will see to that. Drink from 2025.

Ett år av extremer, med en väldigt regnig vår uppbackad av en väldigt torr sommar. Cabernet njöt av torkan och gav röda som är mogna och garvsyrade, men också fräscha, friska och fulla av aromer; ger normal till över normal. Övre Médoc superb, med St.-Estèphe, Pauillac och St.-Julien som epicentrum för kvalitet.

Samma mönster som Left Bank, med regnig start, torr avslutning. Lerbaserade jordar klarade torrperioden bäst, kalksten också stark; unga vinrankor och Pomerols sandiga jordar den enda svaga punkten, men i övrigt en mycket homogen årgång.
