Description
Top quality Lirac often gives pricy Châteauneufs a run for their money - none more so than Jean-Pierre and Pascal Lafond's spicy, berry-crammed masterpiece!

Jean-Pierre founded the winery almost 40 years ago - and as an avid racing enthusiast, named it after a famous racehorse, Roquepine. His son, Pascal joined him a few years later and together they have raised the bar for top-quality reds in this area.

Dark ruby in colour with intense black fruit, vanilla and toasty spice notes. Long, luscious and velvety in the mouth - this is heaven as a big glass on its own!
