2023 Carruades de Lafite, Pauillac

An exclusive and refined Pauillac from Château Lafite Rothschild – a second wine with aristocratic elegance, depth, and finesse, created for collectors and grand gastronomic experiences.

Grapes and Vinification

Carruades de Lafite is the second wine of the legendary Château Lafite Rothschild – a name synonymous with world-class Bordeaux. The wine is produced with the same uncompromising approach as the first wine and is selected from carefully chosen parcels on the estate's vineyards.

The blend is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, supplemented with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, creating a wine with structure, finesse, and immediate charm.

Each parcel is vinified separately, after which the wine is aged in French oak barrels, adding complexity, depth, and a silky-smooth integration of tannins.

  • Cabernet Sauvignon – provides backbone, structure, and aging potential
  • Merlot – adds roundness, fruit, and elegance
  • Aged in French oak barrels for finesse, complexity, and balance

Terroir and Origin

The wine originates from Pauillac in the Médoc – one of the world's most prestigious wine regions and home to some of the greatest Bordeaux wines ever created.

The maritime climate from the Atlantic Ocean ensures long, stable ripening conditions, where the grapes develop complexity and a perfect balance between ripe fruit and fresh acidity.

The soil consists of deep layers of gravel over limestone, which provides optimal drainage and forces the vines to root deeply – a key to the wine's concentration, minerality, and elegance.

Tasting Notes

Carruades de Lafite 2023 presents itself as a wine with both immediate accessibility and great aging potential – a perfect introduction to the Lafite style.

  • Aroma: Blackcurrant, black cherry, cedar, violet, and fine spices
  • Taste: Layered and complex with notes of dark berries, graphite, tobacco, and elegantly integrated oak
  • Mouthfeel: Silky and structured with fine tannins and a long, lingering, and aristocratic finish

Serving and Food Pairing

Serving temperature: 16–18°C

This Pauillac demands dishes that match the wine's complexity and structure, and it elevates any gastronomic experience to a higher level.

  • Beef – ideal for steak, tournedos, and braised dishes
  • Lamb – highlights the wine's spicy and elegant character
  • Game – matches the wine's depth and complexity
  • Aged cheeses – perfect for Comté, Parmesan, and other firm cheeses
