The 2023 Laroque might be the best wine David Suire has made since taking over here a few years ago. What I admire most about Laroque is its classicism - there is plenty of that on display here. Bright acids and persistent beams of supporting tannin frame dark-toned fruit, lavender, rose petal, graphite and sweet spice in a Saint-Émilion that impresses with its vibrancy and delineation. Superb. Tasted two times. Drinking window: 2033-2053. (Antonio Galloni,vinous.com) The 2023 Laroque might be the best wine David Suire has made since taking over here a few years ago.
