Located in Bordeaux’s Saint-Émilion appellation, Château Laroque is a charming Grand Cru Classé wine producer with a rich history that dates back to the 18th century. The estate has been owned by the Beaumartin family since 1935, who have completely replanted the vines in 1962. This is the 2019 vintage of its flagship wine, a blend of 97% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc, aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, around 50% new. Expect notes of cassis, wild blackberries, pepper, cornflower, plus hints of incense and vanilla.

The 2019 Laroque lacks a bit of complexity on the nose - high-toned black fruit, touches of hickory and crushed black peppercorns. Slightly animally in style, though attractive. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, quite pliant, well balanced with a smooth and quite velvety finish. After a slow entrance, it starts to seduce and I strongly suspect it would have deserved a more generous score in line with my previous assessments given more aeration. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. Neal Martin1st February 2023
