Description
FIRST OFFER - DELIVERY SPRING 2027
Discover the timeless beauty of Château Lafite Rothschild. On the legendary gravel plateaus of Lafite, the grapes thrive under the careful guidance of generations of winemakers, who cherish and pass on the traditions of winemaking.
Spread over 112 hectares, the vineyard embraces three areas steeped in history: the slopes around the château, the Carruades plateau to the west and a nearby parcel in Saint-Estèphe. Here, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot grow on a unique mix of gravel, sand and limestone. The 2023 is a blend of 93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot.
A symbol of heritage, the ancient Lafite cedar stands as a silent witness to the transmission of knowledge and passion from generation to generation. Planted almost 300 years ago, this cedar protected the château and its replacement, today’s Lafite cedar, continues this tradition.
The history of Château Lafite Rothschild is intertwined with the glorious terroir of Pauillac, shaped by centuries of alluvial deposits and blessed with an exceptional climate. A haven for biodiversity, Lafite embraces a sustainable future with a commitment to organic farming and biodiversity conservation.
For the wine, each grape is tasted individually before only the best are selected for the final blend. With a maturation of 15 months in new oak barrels, Château Lafite Rothschild reveals its signature elegance and complexity.

A blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2024 Lafite Rothschild offers up aromas of minty blackcurrants, violets, incense, loamy soil and cigar box, followed by a medium-bodied, pillowy and open-knit palate built around tangy acids and powdery tannins, concluding with a discreetly herbal finish. Harvest began on September 24 and concluded on October 4, delivering a Lafite in something of a throwback style, nodding to the wines made here in the 1970s.

The vineyard of Château Lafite Rothschild consists of three main areas: The slopes around the Château, the Carruades plateau to the west and a 4.5 hectare site in Saint-Estèphe. Its area is 112 hectares. The soil consists of fine, deeply ground mixed with windblown sand on a well-drained and well-incorporated tertiary limestone subsoil. The grape varieties grown here are Cabernet-Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
Here the first stones were laid, the winegrowers' houses were built and prepared for something unusual to happen. As the years passed, the house overlooking this hill got bigger and a wisteria vine climbed the walls of generations of families to see how preserving this ecosystem has always been the ultimate priority. 150 years ago, Baroness Betty, wife of Baron James, planted the huge oak trees that separate our vineyard from the marshes. They, their children and grandchildren, the families of winegrowers die with them, work conscientiously to protect this impeccable creation that has been bequeathed to nature. They have taken great care to preserve this microcosm of forests and marshes, flora and fauna amidst the vines of Château Lafite Rothschild thrive in this almost wild osmosis.
As the ultimate witness to this protected land, some of the vines still gracefully show off their 140 years of ungrafted life. They escaped the phylloxera which, however, spared no one else! This infallible part of the vines continues to elude the winegrowers, the same ones who form, protect and nurture it, from one harvest year to the next, trying to refine this perfect composition that amazes them time and time again. It may not be a coincidence, of course, that Lafite earned the title of "First of the First" at Napoleon III's World's Fair. Nor will it be a coincidence, if others will speak of it long after us… Each barrel is tasted individually and only the best is selected for the final blend. After blending, the wine matures for 15 months in new oak barrels. Fermentation takes place for 15 days at a controlled temperature of 18°C. Only vines older than 10 years are used for the Grand Vin Château Lafite Rothschild. While each vintage is unique, there is usually a large portion of Cabernet Sauvignon, then Merlot, with a small contribution of Petit Verdot.
