100 100Robert Parker"Deep garnet in color, the 2010 Lafite Rothschild is a little mute on the nose at this stage, opening to reveal warm blackcurrants, baked plums and boysenberry scents with hints of chocolate mint, violets, cedar chest and pencil lead. Full-bodied, rich and densely packed with perfumed black fruit layers, it has a rock-solid backbone of fantastically ripe, grainy tannins and beautiful freshness, finishing very long and minerally. Still very youthful!"

On the most beautiful hills of Pauillac, it is a territory that the poet Ausone already spoke of around the year 325. The vineyard, of 112 hectares, includes three large areas: the hillsides around the Château, the Carruades plateau contiguous to the west and a plot in the neighboring town of Saint-Estèphe. These are fine and deep gravel lands, mixed with aeolian sands on a well-drained limestone subsoil.
Fermentations in large oak vats and steel vats, aging for 18 to 20 months in new oak barrels, all coming from the estate cooperage.
