Critic reviews
"The 2016 Rocheyron has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and suggestions of wood smoke, camphor and pencil lead over a core of red and black plums, kirsch and blackberry tart. Medium-bodied, finely crafted and elegant in the mouth, the delicate fruit is well-knit with fine-grained tannins and just enough freshness, finishing on a perfumed note."
Lisa Perrotti-Brown, November 2018
"The 2016 Rocheyron, from Peter Sisseck's property in Saint-Émilion, is unquestionably the best to date. The bouquet bursts from the glass with fresh blackberry and boysenberry fruit that is seamlessly integrated with the one-third new oak. The palate is framed by fine tannins and a superb line of acidity. There is plenty of crisp black fruit here, and the smooth, energetic finish leaves a crushed stone residue. If you couldn’t locate any Pingus this year, just come here."
