Showing the heat of the vintage, the 2009 Lafon-Rochet is a plush, medium bodied Saint Estephe with gorgeous ripples of blackberry, boysenberry, coconut cream and balsamic. There is little to no perceptible tannin and gentle acidity, making this a supple drinker now that should probably be enjoyed in the near term.
