The Story

A sophisticated and high-toned second label from the legendary First Growth estate, the 2022 Carruades de Lafite reflects the exceptional concentration and structure of a historic Bordeaux vintage. This wine displays a deep purple hue and an expressive bouquet of crème de cassis, black cherries, and violets, elegantly interwoven with notes of cedar, graphite, and subtle earthy undertones. On the palate, it is medium-to-full-bodied and remarkably precise, showcasing a dense core of dark fruit supported by fine-grained, architectural tannins and a vibrant freshness. Despite the warmth of the year, it retains the signature Lafite elegance and "vertical" lift, leading to a long, mineral-driven finish with lingering nuances of tobacco and spice.

96 Points - 

Attractive, showing blackcurrants, lead pencil and flowers such as lavender and violets on the nose, as well as tobacco. Medium-bodied and juicy with firm and linear tannins that are rather endless. Impressive stones and chalkiness. Excellent length and crunchiness. 53% cabernet sauvignon, 40% merlot, 4% cabernet franc and 3% petit verdot. Drink in three or four years.

93 Points - 

Aromas of sweet cherries and berries mingled with hints of cedar box, loamy soil, warm spices, violets and orange zest introduce the 2022 Carruades de Lafite, a medium to full-bodied, bright and velvety blend of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot.
