Château Lafon Rochet 2005
Sweet black fruits intermixed with weedy tobacco, licorice, and leather characteristics; medium-bodied and powerful, with excruciating tannin, but promising potential, patience is most definitely required

Saint-Estèphe Château Lafon Rochet 4Ème Cru Classé 2010
Brillant ruby red colour, high layer. Smell of coffee or wood. Not the sweetest wine, but kind of.
