The second wine of Château Lafite Rothschild, Carruades de Lafite offers a glimpse into the estate's prestigious winemaking tradition, showcasing the finesse and elegance of Pauillac.
We are pleased to say that the estate has dropped the price by almost 23.5%, making this by far the best-value vintage of the market, released even below the 2019. Carruades is one of the top performers on the secondary market, even in the current challenging macro-economic conditions as shown in the table below, taken from UK listings on Wine-Searcher.
What the critics say:
"Garnet colour, deep core, purple reflections. Fresh sweet cherries, fine herbal savouriness, hints of nougat, some candied orange zest. Firm on the palate. Red berries, some cassis, fresh structure, lively acidity, red forest berries on the finish, an approachable and lively food wine."
"Gorgeous deep plum colour, very juicy, extremely well handled, savoury and mouthwatering, cassis bud, roses, crayon, shorter on the finish than a typical Carruades, but this has plenty of subtle pleasure and will be ready to drink sooner than usual. Harvest 23 September to 7 October, 32hl/h yield, 47% of the harvest is in this wine, 12% press."
