Product features : Vignobles Denis Lafon la Revelation 2014 — Blaye
In the mouth
Soft, generous palate with silky tannins. Flavours of ripe cherry and blackberry develop into a finish with restrained oak and spice, leaving a clean, lingering impression.
On the nose
Expressive bouquet of red and black fruits—cassis and plum—with subtle undertones of vanilla and liquorice that add refinement without dominating.
On the eye
Bright ruby-red robe, deep and youthful in appearance.
Breeding
Ageing in stainless steel and part in oak barrels, bringing a touch of elegance without dominating the fruit
Drawn from the estate's oldest vines, La Révélation represents accessible Bordeaux done well. It offers genuine complexity and balance, appealing equally to those seeking immediate pleasure and those preferring classical structure. A sound choice for regular enjoyment, with sufficient refinement to reward attention.

VIGNOBLES DENIS LAFON
Established on the clay-limestone hillsides of Cars in the Gironde, Vignobles Denis Lafon farm 43 hectares under the Bordeaux appellation, certified organic from the 2020 vintage. Founded by Denis Lafon in 1967 — with roots in the Blayais traceable to the 18th century — the estate gained fresh momentum in 2014 when his nephew Stéphane Dejoué joined him, driving both its expansion and full conversion to organic farming. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the integrity of its organic commitment, the breadth of its encépagement — Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Sémillon, Sauvignon — and the honest expression of its red, white, and rosé wines. A family Bordeaux address well worth following.
