Great wine, and the reason I enjoyed Pauillac again.

Critic tasting note: (2018 vintage) "Named after a hamlet on the Lafite estate, this new creation from Lafite-Rothschild comes from selected parcels of the vineyard. It is a rich wine, worthy of the vintage and the estate. Balancing elegance with ripe black currant fruits, the wine is restrained and has some aging potential. It should be ready from 2025." - Wine Enthusiast

Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
2018 Vintage Tasted: Dec 2022
This is a semi-new wine from Lafite Rothschild. The last time the name was used by Lafite was back in 1991. The wine emanates from a specific parcel in the Lafite vineyard, making it its own, unique wine. With little effort, you find flowers, herbs, tobacco leaf, and spicy currants. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, bright, crisp, and chewy, with a touch of crunch to the sweet, ripe, soft red currants, and green, earthy olives on the mid-palate and in the finish. This is a mini, mini version of Lafite Rothschild, so you get a nice one. true Pauillac character and the best part is, the wine sells for a song. Plus, you can enjoy this with pleasure on release. The wine is a blend of 48% Merlot, 39% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13% Petit Verdot. Drink from 2023-2035.

2018 Vintage Tasted: Dec 2022
Fresh and bright with dried flowers, such as lavender and violets, with some black berries and currants. Medium body, fine tannins, with a nice and slightly bitter lemon and cedar aftertaste. Why wait? New third wine from Lafite from a special parcel just east of the chateau. Very drinkable. Drink or hold.
