From the gravels of Pauillac, the Château Lafite Rothschild 2023 (Premier Grand Cru Classé) blends Cabernet Sauvignon (93%) and Merlot, aged in new French oak. Notes of blackcurrant, tobacco and cedar, silky and mineral palate. To be cellared for 15–20 years, it pairs with game and rich dishes with elegance.
A historical pillar of Pauillac, this estate has embodied the excellence of Bordeaux wines since the 17th century, combining family heritage and viticultural precision.
- Terroir: Deep gravels and gravelly soils of Pauillac, conferring a chalky minerality and an elegant structure to the wines.
- Vinification: Meticulous blending, ageing in new French oak barrels, for a pure expression and a refined tension.
