The tannins are polished yet authoritative, giving the wine a poised, powerful frame that promises extraordinary complexity with further cellaring.

About Chateau Lafite Rothschild

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.
