In this challenging vintage, Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2013 leans on its Cabernet core to give a poised, dark-fruited wine edged with graphite, cedar and cool herbal tones, all wrapped in fine but insistent tannins. The palate feels compact yet classy, with blackcurrant, plum skin and tobacco nuances carrying through to a long, serious finish that promises more nuance with time in bottle.

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.
