Château Lafite Rothschild Pauillac 2023

Château Lafite Rothschild 2023 is a Premier Grand Cru Classé from Pauillac composed of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot. With a modest alcohol level of 12.5%, this vintage prioritizes precision, freshness, and elegance.

The nose reveals blackcurrant, blackberry, raspberry, and plum, accompanied by graphite, flowers, star anise, nutmeg, and subtle notes of cedar. The palate is slender and harmonious, with tannins of great finesse, mineral tension, and a very persistent finish.

The wine is aged in French oak barrels, with approximately 90% new wood and the remainder in one-year-old barrels. Despite its depth, the wine retains a delicate texture and a balance that is particularly classic for the appellation.
