Punteggi dei critici
20 Rene Gabriel
Die absolute Perfektion. Dunkles Granat. Kompaktes Bouquet aber dann doch nicht so kompakt, dass nicht sehr viele grossartige Aromen schon durchsickern, die typische Lafitesüsse vermischt sich mit sehr tiefgründigen Pauillac-Aromen. Die hoch feinen, genialen Tannine sind im absoluten Sonderklassebereich. Das war der erste, richtig konzentrierte Lafite der neueren Epoche, nach dem dieser Premier früher Jahrzehntelang durch helle Farben und «delikater Oberflächlichkeit» glänzte. Ein bewegender Schluck. Und dann gleich noch einer! 20/20

What a red with incredible depth and finesse. Cedar, cigar box and toabaaco character with currants and fresh tobacco undertones. It's full-bodied yet tight and dense. Precision. So refined and intense. Such freshness and beauty. Drink or hold.
96 Wine Spectator
Intense aromas of blackberries, black licorice and currants, with mineral undertones. Full-bodied, with a solid core of tannins and a long, silky finish. Still holding back, but is concentrated and powerful. The 1996 is always talked about, but I think this is superior and will be in the future.--'95/'96 Bordeaux retrospective. Best after 2010. 20,000 cases made. JS

The 1995 Lafite-Rothschild (only one-third of the harvest made it into the final blend) is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, and 8% Cabernet Franc. The wine was showing spectacularly well when I tasted it in November, 1997. It exhibits a dark ruby purple color, and a sweet, powdered mineral, smoky, weedy cassis-scented nose. Beautiful sweetness of fruit is present in this medium-bodied, tightly-knit, but gloriously pure, well-delineated Lafite. The 1995 is not as powerful or as massive as the 1996, but it is beautifully made with outstanding credentials, in addition to remarkable promise. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2028.

Produttore
Château Lafite Rothschild
Tradizionale, elegante e leggendaria: sono solo alcune delle parole che possono descrivere la tenuta di Bordeaux più famosa del mondo, Château Lafite Rothschild. Di proprietà dei Domaines Barons de Rothschild sin dal XVIII secolo, la tenuta Premier Cru è rimasta "leader per i vini pregiati", producendo vini di altissima qualità per decenni. Tra i più grandi produttori del Pauillac, la tenuta possiede oltre 100 ettari di vigneti piantati per il 75% a Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% a Merlot, 4% a Cabernet Franc e solo per l'1% a Petit Verdot. Due terzi dei vigneti formano un solo grande appezzamento intorno allo Château, mentre il terzo rimanente si intreccia con quelli di Duhart-Milon. La rinomata azienda vitivinicola del Médoc produce un Grand Vin profumato ed espressivo, il Château Lafite Rothschild, che rappresenta l'essenza dell'armonia tra uomo e natura. Con lo stesso senso di raffinatezza, Les Carruades de Lafite Rothschild è prodotto con un contenuto maggiore di Merlot. Questo vino eccezionale è molto più ragguardevole di una seconda etichetta media. Entrambi i vini trascorrono da 15 a 20 anni di cantina, per raggiungere la massima omogeneità tra i potenti tannini e gli aromi di cedro e ribes nero.
