Chateaux Laroque Saint Emilion Grande Cru 2006

Region: France, Saint Emilion
Grapes: Merlot
Description: A strong aroma of dark fruits and a deep plum colour tells you that this is going to be good. The mouth expands with dark forest flavours and deep earth tastes, of deep intensity and a slightly savoury finish. this then followed by a lingering warmth of blackcurrent and earthy truffles at the swallow.
Price: £25.64
ABV: 13.5%
Closure: Cork
Source: Waitrose
Occasion: Red meat, Mature cheese (Cheddar)
Comments: This is a top-class Saint-Émilion from a family-run château, and their winemaker Bruno Sainson have produced a refined wine with a wonderful expression of terroir.
Apparently the grapes are hand picked from low-yielding vines which ensure excellent quality. They could even be crushed between the thighs of young French virgins, such is the quality of this wine.
