Since 1868, the property has been owned by the Rothschild family, specifically the Domaines Barons de Rothschild branch. The winery’s philosophy is rooted in a commitment to elegance and finesse, utilizing a unique terroir dominated by deep gravel to produce wines that are celebrated for their longevity and structural harmony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWine Description\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2012 Chateau Lafite Rothschild exhibits a deep, dark ruby colour with purple highlights. The aromatic profile is nuanced and sophisticated, offering notes of cedar, graphite, and blackcurrant, intertwined with subtle hints of violets and tobacco. On the palate, the wine is medium bodied and remarkably balanced, showing refined, silky tannins and a core of fresh red and black fruits. The finish is long, clean, and persistent, displaying the classic 'Lafite' elegance. This vintage is a blend of 91% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Merlot. While approachable now, its optimal drinking window is expected to last until at least 2040.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAccolades\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWine Spectator - 94 points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinous - 95 points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDecanter - 96 points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"300799 - Boushelong Wine \u0026 Spirit International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43139058368599,"sku":"785124","price":1262.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2479\/4148\/files\/lafite-rothschild2012.jpg?v=1778601365","url":"https:\/\/zyn.ca\/products\/chateau-lafite-rothschild-2012","provider":"ZYN THE WINE MARKET LTD.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
