An icon of Bordeaux, Château Lafite Rothschild continues to define elegance and precision with its 2021 vintage. A true expression of the estate’s remarkable terroir, this vintage reflects a classic, cooler growing season with finesse, freshness, and stunning aromatic clarity.
Crafted primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and a touch of Petit Verdot, the 2021 Lafite showcases refined layers of blackcurrant, graphite, violet, and subtle tobacco, supported by a mineral backbone and ultra-fine tannins. The palate is pure, linear, and graceful, more about subtle power than overt opulence.
This is a vintage for connoisseurs, one that rewards those who appreciate Lafite’s timeless balance, restraint, and aging potential. A masterclass in elegance from one of the world’s most prestigious châteaux.

Terroir
Most of the hard work it takes to produce quality wine happens in the vinyard. The soil, the climatic conditions, the aspect, the bodies of water and many more factors, collectively knwon as "terroir" can influence the flavour of wine and give wine distint minerality, depth and character.
