The Story

ラフィットには魂が宿っています。優美で寛大で、柔和な魂です。ラフィットは大地を夢へと変化させます。ラフィットはハーモニー、自然と人とのハーモニー。つまり、優秀なヴィニュロン無くしては、何も生まれてきません」
エリック・ド・ロートシルト男爵

1815年、ギヨーム・ロートンは、早々と、シャトー・ラフィット・ロートシルトに次のような賛辞を残しています。「3軒(のプルミエ・クリュ)の中でも、極上のエレガンスと繊細さ、そして精気を備えたワインである。メドックでも最も優美な場所に位置するブドウ畑に数えられる。」1855年、万国博覧会を機会に制定された、かの有名な格付け。シャトー・ラフィット・ロートシルトは、格付け第一級の認定を得ています。

ブドウ品種 :

カベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン 80〜95%、メルロ 5〜20%、カベルネ・フランおよびプティ・ヴェルド 0〜5%
註:例外的ヴィンテージもあります。例)1994年は99%カベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン、1%プティ・ヴェルド。1961年は100%カベルネ・ソーヴィニヨン。

Written Notes

As I have indicated in the past, under the administration of Charles Chevalier, Lafite-Rothschild has produced a tremendous succession of historic, possibly monumental wines since 1995. The 2002 will only add to Chevalier’s illustrious resume. Forty-seven percent of the crop made it into the grand vin, a blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9.5% Merlot, and 3.5% Cabernet Franc. It smells and tastes like liqueur of lead pencil intermixed with cassis and cherry jam. Opaque purple to the rim, relatively light on its feet, but super-concentrated and intense, it is reminiscent of a lighter-weight 1996, a wine that merited a perfect score. More forward than the 1996, the 2002 is extraordinarily concentrated, riveting juice that has impeccable harmony. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2038

Lafite Rothschild 2002 (barrel sample) 96-98p Tasted in April 2003. What a big range of nuances and what a fantastic aroma of leather, dark cherries and blueberries. Extremely sophisticated and with sensational depth. This wine is knock-out!
