DESCRIPTION

Les Pèlerins de Lafon-Rochet is the second wine of the prestigious Château Lafon-Rochet, Grand Cru Classé de Saint-Estèphe. Made primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, it embodies the same care and attention as the grand vin but offers a more approachable expression of the estate's terroir. Elegant, structured, and refined, this cuvée delivers the depth and power typical of Saint-Estèphe, balanced by freshness and supple tannins - a perfect introduction to the château's timeless style.

EYE

Deep garnet-red with violet highlights, brilliant and dense, reflecting both youth and concentration.

NOSE

Expressive and complex, revealing aromas of blackcurrant, plum, and violet intertwined with hints of cedar, tobacco, and subtle spice. The bouquet combines ripeness with precision and purity.

MOUTH

Full-bodied and smooth, with fine-grained tannins and balanced freshness. Flavors of dark fruit, licorice, and graphite unfold harmoniously, leading to a long, elegant finish marked by minerality and finesse. Structured yet supple, this wine showcases both power and refinement.

PAIRING

Perfect with grilled or roasted red meats, lamb, or duck breast. It also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses, mushroom dishes, or truffle-based cuisine — ideal for elegant dinners and special occasions.

Wines showcase a full range of taste profiles from earthy with strong and dry tannins to softer and smoother with notes of plum, black fruits. There are the go to French wines with red meat dishes.
