From the gravelly soils of Pauillac, Château Lafite Rothschild 2020 (92% Cabernet Sauvignon) offers a nose of blackberry, tobacco and spices. On the palate, its silky structure and precise tannins combine with a vibrant freshness. Perfect from 2030 onwards with roast lamb or aged cheese.
A legendary estate, rooted in the deep gravels of Pauillac, where exacting standards and tradition shape wines of timeless elegance.
- Terroir: Gravelly and clay-limestone soils of Pauillac, the cradle of great Cabernet Sauvignons, conferring structure and minerality.
- Vinification: Aged in French oak barrels, respecting natural balances to produce wines that are both powerful and of rare precision.
