2018 vintage. Last tasted 02.21.22 (9.5). Same tonight. Expressive nose and great body. On the path to pleasure. Really difficult to source this specific vintage currently. Grrr. 04.07.25. — 7 days ago

Mature and intense nose, pulpy and chewy on the palate. Long aftertaste. Closing slightly serious. It’s a serious wine tho. — a day ago

It’s a limestone party here! Very chalky and shady acidic. Many people will love it. Fine and long. — a day ago

Again, Laroque punches above its weight and made a lovely, smooth, tasty and sultry wine in 2024. This will have a great QPR!
Bravo. — a day ago

Vintage 2010 | gave it two hours in decanter, a barnyard stinky in smell (not everyone appreciates this, I do), cedar very present, hints of spices and a good concentration. When accompanied with food it is ready to drink now. Fine right bank wine, neighbour of Cheval Blanc (I take a special interest in neighbours of the priceless top domaines). — 20 days ago

Super earthy at first, but with air the fruit/earth balance is equilibrating. Loads of irony/clay notes in the nose, with dark plummy fruit. Tannins are integrating but still present. This presents more like a 20th Century right bank wine than what is usual now, with fruit and softness but no overripeness and a nice sense of restraint. — 24 days ago

Potenza, controllo, profondità e . . . Lunghezza. Meravigliosa e infinita. Wow!
This wine is all in the aftertaste.
Great! — 43 minutes ago
