Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2021 unfurls with a poised, almost austere intensity, layering dark cassis and loganberry fruit with graphite, cigar box, violets and a subtle saline edge. The medium-bodied frame conceals impressive depth, its fine but insistent tannins and bright acidity driving a long, delicately earthy and mineral finish that clearly signals a wine built for decades of evolution. Classic, cool-vintage Lafite in its regal restraint and precision.

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.
