2020 Laroze

Château Laroze is a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé and its 27-hectare (67-acre) vineyard is located at the foot of the hill to the north-west of the medieval village of Saint-Emilion. The vines grow around the Château. We till the soil, cultivate grass between the rows, drain the plots, add organic supplements and prohibit the use of weed-killers, so that the vines’ roots find it easier to penetrate the soil made of silica and clay. The quality of this beautiful setting is very favourable for the Cabernet Franc grapes providing us with rich tasty wines that are elegant and more-ish. Vinification and ageing: Vinification in thermoregulated stainless steel and concrete tanks. Ageing for 18 months in 50% new barrels, 43% in vats and 7% in amphorae.
