Chateau Laroque 2018 is a richly layered Saint-Émilion, brimming with ripe black plum, blackcurrant and dark cherry, framed by subtle spice, cocoa and floral tones. The limestone terroir shows in its vibrant freshness and mineral length, while the tannins are plush yet structured, promising even greater harmony with some bottle age.

Château Laroque is a Merlot-dominant Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé from the limestone plateau east of the village, produced only from a strict selection of the estate’s oldest, best-sited vines. The grand vin is known for its bright, floral and spicy character, marked salinity and chalky minerality, and a supple yet structured profile that reflects its deep clay-limestone soils and high-elevation, single-block vineyard.
