Les Pèlerins de Lafon Rochet: Saint-Estèphe's Approachable Luxury

The distinguished second wine of the Château Lafon-Rochet, Les Pèlerins is a superb representation of the Saint-Estèphe terroir. It is meticulously crafted from select younger vines, ensuring a wine that is both immediately gratifying and structurally sound-a genuine taste of a Bordeaux Fourth Growth without the extended wait.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: A deep, vibrant garnet, signalling concentration and depth.
• Bouquet: Enticingly complex, offering bold blackcurrant and fresh blackberry notes, elegantly framed by cedarwood, cigar box, and a hint of sweet spice from its time in oak.
• Palate: Full-bodied yet beautifully balanced. The tannins are refined and velvety, providing a firm structure that carries the dark fruit through to a long, refreshing finish. It’s classic Saint-Estèphe with a softer edge.

Food Pairing & Serving

An exceptional partner for a classic British Sunday Roast or game. Decant before serving at 17-18°C. This claret is drinking well now and will continue to evolve gracefully over the next decade.
