Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2022

Château Lafite Rothschild, a First Growth estate under the Bordeaux Wine Official Classification of 1855, is one of the world’s most prestigious wineries.

The vineyard’s gravel-rich terroir, coupled with meticulous viticulture, contributes to the refined power and elegance for which Lafite is celebrated.

Wine Description
The 2022 vintage opens with a deep garnet colour and a strikingly expressive bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, graphite, violets, and cedarwood. On the palate, it reveals a full-bodied structure with layers of cassis, black cherries, tobacco, and subtle earthiness, all wrapped in exceptionally fine-grained tannins. The mouthfeel is both rich and lifted, leading to a lingering, harmonious finish that is mineral-driven and precise.
