Punteggi dei critici
19 Rene Gabriel
90,5 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 9 % Merlot, 0,5 % Petit Verdot. Extrem dunkles Violett-Granat mit schwarzen Reflexen. Dichtes, komplexes Bouquet, viel Edelholzoten, Mahagoni, Teakholz, Trüffel, Korinthen, Rauch, wirkt tiefgründig wie ein Latour und ist bereits in seiner Jugendphase eher auf der Terroirseite von den Grundaromen her, dahinter diese grossartige, diesmal sehr schwer wirkende, typische Lafitesüsse zeigend. Im Gaumen grossartig, viel Tanninreichtum und diese Gerbstoffe sind voller Finessen und zeigen sich sehr vielschichtig, alle Fruchtkomponenten liegen im blau- bis schwarzbeerigen Bereich, tolle Länge. Ein klassischer Lafite mit einer bestechenden Geradlinigkeit. Stil 1985-plus-plus!

The 2004 Lafite-Rothschild appears to be another late-bloomer in the sense that this 12-year-old bottle is the best I have tasted, implying an upward swing in quality. It has a wondrous bouquet, very sensual and pure with blackberry, graphite and cedar - all the hallmarks of Pauillac, delivered with great panache. It is more opulent than I recall. The palate is medium-bodied with silky tannins, pitch-perfect acidity and a beautiful structure. There is a regal sense to this Lafite, understated compared to the other First Growths and yet the persistence on the finish deserves a round of applause, especially in the context of the vintage. This is superb and could possibly turn out to be the pick of the Firsts. Tasted September 2016. othschilds go, this is somewhat of a sleeper vintage.

Intense aromas of currant, coffee, toasty oak and sweet tobacco follow through to a full-bodied palate, with velvety tannins, great mouthfeel and a long finish. A refined Lafite. Best after 2012. 22,080 cases made. JS

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.
