Château Laforge 2005 Red (Saint-Emilion)
- $66
This is a New World-style of Bordeaux, all polished edges, and sweet, ripe fruit. There is structure and dry tannins, but these are well integrated into the smooth black cherry and dried fig flavors that are given extra interest by a herbal edge. The aftertaste is fresh, keeping acidity.

Château Laforge 2006 Red (Saint-Emilion)
- Online Exclusive
- $50
Jammy and ripe, from gravel soils in the valley plain of Saint-Emilion, this is already a very drinkable wine. It has intense, concentrated red and black berry fruits surrounding a core of seriously dry tannins from fruit and wood. Solid but rich, this is developing well.

Château Laforge 2008 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Emilion)
- Online Exclusive
90-92 Barrel sample. Spicy, ripe and concentrated, this works well as a forward, fruity wine. The fruit balances easily with a measure of wood.

Château Laforge 2004 Red (Saint-Emilion)
A Merlot-dominated Saint-Emilion, this is a big, but balanced wine. New wood is present, but this doesn’t diminish the ripe blackberry and cherry fruits. It is firm, dry and tannic at this stage, with a hint of coffee, but the aftertaste is fresh, with red currant flavors and acidity.
— R.V.

Château Laforge 2005 Barrel sample Red (Saint-Emilion)
- Online Exclusive
88-90 Barrel sample. A smooth, ripe, dense wine, with well-integrated fruit and noticeable acidity that powers through with intense flavors of dark cocoa.
— R.V.

Château Laforge 2009 Red (Saint-Emilion)
- $70
Dominated by Merlot, this is a fruity and rich wine, rounded, ripe and spicy. It has density and weight, layered with dusty rich tannins. With its spice, blackberry acidity and chunky feel, it is already drinkable, but will age over several years.
— R.V.
