Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2009 marries regal depth of blackcurrant and plum fruit with layers of dark chocolate, roasted coffee and subtle spice, all wrapped in an effortlessly silky texture. The tannins are polished yet authoritative, giving the wine a poised, powerful frame that promises extraordinary complexity with further cellaring.

Château Lafite Rothschild, the grand vin of this historic Pauillac first growth, is a predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon blend from old vines rooted in deep gravel over limestone on the château’s slopes, the Carruades plateau, and parcels in Saint-Estèphe. Renowned for its refined, cedar-tinged bouquet and a balance of power, finesse, and longevity, it is widely regarded as one of Bordeaux’s most elegant and collectible wines.
