The elegance and complexity of a Second Wine from Pauillac
The property
First among the classified growths of 1855 in Bordeaux, the Château Lafite-Rothschild is a lord on its gravel lands. Carrying a long viticultural tradition initiated in 1620, it has asserted itself over the centuries as a true standard-bearer of the Pauillac appellation on the left bank of the Bordeaux region. Indeed, from Cardinal Richelieu to the then President of the United States, Thomas Jefferson, the great personalities of this world have fallen under the charm of these great wines with a unique soul and unparalleled refinement.
The vineyard
Château Lafite Rothschild benefits from an exceptional location with a vineyard divided into three major areas. The Carruades plateau is located to the west of the estate on fine gravel and sandy soils over limestone subsoils.
The wine
Second wine of Château Lafite-Rothschild, Carruades de Lafite is a reference among Pauillac wines.
Vinification and blending
For this vintage, a part of the wines was vinified in the estate's historic vat room.
Blend
This Carruades de Lafite 2023 is the result of a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (60%) and Merlot (40%).
