LES TOURS DE LAROQUE: Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Excellence

As the Second Wine of the esteemed Château Laroque, a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé, LES TOURS DE LAROQUE offers an accessible and charming glimpse into the estate’s superior winemaking. It benefits from the same exceptional clay-limestone soils of the Right Bank, delivering a wine of immediate pleasure and notable character.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: A deep, alluring ruby-garnet hue.
• Aroma: Rich and complex, revealing notes of blackcurrant, damson plum, and a gentle wood spice, leading to subtle hints of cocoa and forest floor.
• Taste: Smooth and well-rounded, the wine is driven by concentrated dark fruit and an elegant tannic structure. Its balance and freshness on the finish are hallmarks of classic Saint-Émilion.

Food Matching & Serving

A superb claret that is ready to drink now but has the backbone to age gracefully. Serve at 17°C for optimal flavour.

• Food Matches: Excellent with Roast Venison Loin, a hearty Game Pie, or a Traditional Sunday Roast Beef.
• When to Drink: Now to 2035.
