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

Lafite Rothschild - 94% C. Sauvignon, 5% Merlot and 1% P. Verdot. 13.7% alcohol. This wine had, as always, wildly many layers to rely on. Everything was stunning, from a deeply intense nose of perfectly aromatic black fruit and flowers to an excellently structured palate covered with cashmere and full of luscious fruit and silky tannin, seamless, fabulous midpalate, and a mega-long finish lasting more than one minute. A legend in the making! 99-100p.

Ruby.
Blackberries, cassis, fruit driven, nuanced, detailed, bright, intense and scented nose. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, liquorice, detailed, blackberries, rich with finesse, layered and deep for Lafite, not for the vintage, long indeed.

A classical Lafite that reminds me of something like the 1986, with its blackcurrant and tobacco character with cedar and hazelnut, but it's so today with its purity and precision. It's really about being Lafite here. Terroir gives great elegance with strength. 99-100

  • 100p

A wine of stunning purity and freshness, the quintessence of elegance. Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core.  Excellent nose with concentrated yet elegant character and a slightly closed start. Opens up very well displaying a fine aroma reminiscent of blackcurrants, blackcurrant spurs, ripe blackberries, vanilla, cardamom and fine toasting. On the palate noble tannins, well balanced, juicy fruit and very elegant spiciness. A mind-blowing wine with excellent length and complexity in the finish.
