The wine in this vintage

The April 2017 frost struck many parts of Bordeaux, but vineyards near the estuary, such as those of Pauillac, were largely spared. The rest of the season, warm and regular, produced elegant, fragrant wines of medium structure and great balance. Château Lafite Rothschild 2017 is refined and airy, with blackcurrant, cherry, cedar, pencil lead, violet and fine spice on a fresh, harmonious palate with silky tannins. James Suckling gave it 98 points. Already enjoyable, it can be appreciated now or kept for many years without concern. It shows its best at cellar temperature, alongside roast game, veal or hard cheeses.

The producer · Château Lafite Rothschild

First among the Premiers Grands Crus Classés in the celebrated 1855 classification, Château Lafite Rothschild has been synonymous with great Bordeaux for centuries. As early as the eighteenth century, under the Marquis de Ségur, its wines were among the most coveted in Europe and graced the court of Versailles. In 1868 the estate was bought by Baron James de Rothschild and has since belonged to the French branch of the family: after the long stewardship of Baron Éric de Rothschild, it is now chaired by Saskia de Rothschild. The vineyard, over a hundred hectares in the north of Pauillac on the border with Saint-Estèphe, spreads across deep gravel croupes over limestone subsoil, ideal for Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by Merlot and small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Lafite seeks elegance rather than power: aromas of cedar, graphite and dark fruit, silky tannins, an airy texture and legendary longevity. Its cellars hold historic vintages, testimony to a continuity few estates in the world can claim.
