| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
CHÂTEAU SAINT-ROCH |
| Jean-Marc Lafage privately owned vinyards date back 6 generations and this tasty 2022 has a bright very deep intense purple-ruby colour and an attractive, gently spicy, fairly complex, ripe, raspberry-plum-cherry nose with some cedary notes. Dry, medium bodied, slightly spicy, intense, ripe, plummy-black-cherry-raspberry flavours with a mineral-tinged, lingering, mouthfilling finish. This crowd-pleasing blend of 40% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 30% Cinsault is half aged in large oak demi-muids, the other half in concrete tanks and has 15% alcohol and 3 g/L residual sugar with lot number L24312A on the lower part of the glass bottle. This 2022 now comes in a Bordeaux bottle with a red wax seal. |
