Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2016 layers pure blackcurrant and blackberry fruit with notes of sweet tobacco, graphite, and subtle spice, wrapped in ultra-fine but powerful tannins. The palate is concentrated yet effortless, with striking freshness and a resonant, long finish that promises decades of graceful evolution.

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.
