Chateau Lafon-Rochet, Saint-Estephe, France 2010 Chehalem The 2015 was impressive eachDeep garnet in color, the 2010 Lafon Rochet comes bounding out of the glass with sit up and beg notes of crme de cassis, blackberry pie and blueberry preserves followed by suggestions of Chinese five spice, potpourri and tilled soil. Full bodied and concentrated, with loads of black and blue fruit layers, it has a rock solid backbone of grainy tannins and compelling freshness, finishing long and fragrant. 94 Pts Robert Parker
