Score 83/100 · Robert Parker
The 1985 Lafon-Rochet is fleshy, chewy, has good ruby color, firm tannins and medium body, yet lamentably, is one-dimensional. Perhaps more character will emerge with additional bottle age. Anticipated maturity: Now-1999. Last tasted, 4/89. Jan 1998, www.robertparker.com
