André Lurton bought de Rochemorin in 1973; the estate has grown vines since the 16th century. Deep Ruby with a big fruit nose of black and red berry fruits and earthy spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and blackberry with notes of cacao and tobacco. Fine grippy tannins, medium finish ending with earthy fruit character. Nice value. Drink now.

Showing beautifully! Elegant complex bouquet mixing leather, red and purple flowers, potting soil, plum, and general tertiary awesomeness (words may be superfluous)

Yesterday's bottle was too evolved for its own good but today version showed fine typicity and tension. I like the down-toned aromatics, as it marries well with the Elevage, sort of capturing it's true identity.

Awesome tobacco and licorice on the nose. Smooth tannins, strawberry rhubarb pie, elegant mouthfeel.. Great value!

Ripe, burley, and complex. Replete with brambleberry, spice and truffle. With just enough structure on the finish to give length and composure.

Hint of tabaco on the nose, tannin on the front but quickly disappears. Good with pizza
