CHATEAU LAFON ROCHET
In 1960 Guy Tesseron, a great name in Cognac, took over the 17th century property but everything was in ruins, or almost. He renovated the cellars and the vat house and decided to demolish the château. In its place, he built a residence based on the plans of a chartreuse. The rebirth of the wine was also to be done and in 1966 he presented a wine worthy of a 4th Grand Cru Classé. The next step was the purchase of Château Pontet-Canet, followed a few years later by Château Malescasse. The wines of Château Lafon Rochet come from 40 hectares of vines in a single block.
