CARRUADES DE LAFITE 2016 75CL

Description

Carruades de Lafite 2016 is the second wine of the iconic Château Lafite Rothschild, offering an exceptional glimpse into the quality of this renowned estate. With a blend that predominantly features Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by Merlot and other varietals, this wine exhibits the hallmark characteristics of Pauillac—elegant yet powerful. The 2016 vintage presents aromas of dark berries, cassis, graphite, and hints of floral and earthy nuances. On the palate, it is full-bodied with refined tannins, well-balanced acidity, and a long, complex finish. While approachable now with some decanting, it has excellent aging potential, evolving beautifully over the next decade or more. A superb expression of Lafite’s craftsmanship at a more accessible price point.
