Laroque’s 2021 release offers vivid red and black berry fruit edged with floral notes and subtle spice, carried by lively acidity and finely woven tannins. Medium-bodied yet surprisingly deep, it shows the cool, fresh personality of the vintage while retaining impressive density and length from its old Merlot vines.

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.
