9 in stock
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.

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
