Château Laroze is a historic family estate in Saint-Émilion. The château’s roots date back to the nineteenth century. The family’s history and deep connection to the vineyards give the wine a unique place among the renowned names of Bordeaux’s Right Bank. Each vintage tells a new chapter of that story.
Merlot and Cabernet Franc play an important role in the wines of Saint-Émilion. At Laroze, the variety of soil types contributes to the balance between ripe fruit, fresh vibrancy, and tannins. The vineyard and the decisions made during harvest determine the final style. That’s why it’s worthwhile to compare different vintages from the same estate.
After a wet spring, 2018 brought a warm and dry summer. This resulted in ripe grapes and gave Laroze a full-bodied, concentrated style. When stored in a magnum under proper conditions, the wine may develop differently than it would in a standard bottle.
Black cherries, plums, blackcurrants, and subtle spices characterize the aromatic profile. The tannins give the wine structure and may gradually soften with further bottle aging. Cedar, tobacco, and earthy notes may also come more to the fore over the years. The wine’s development depends on how it is stored and the condition of the bottle.
Een magnum bevat twee gewone flessen, maar biedt meer dan alleen extra inhoud. Door de andere verhouding tussen wijn en lucht kan de rijping onder goede omstandigheden geleidelijker verlopen. Bewaar de fles liggend, donker en bij een stabiele, koele temperatuur. Schenk bij een diner met geroosterd vlees of een gerecht met paddenstoelen en proef eerst hoe de wijn zich in het glas opent.
