The 2009 Château Lafite Rothschild is a towering example of Pauillac and one of the greatest vintages of the modern era. This wine dazzles with aromas of cassis, graphite, cedar, violets, and subtle tobacco—an intoxicating bouquet that reflects its noble terroir. The palate is both powerful and ethereal, with dense layers of ripe black fruits seamlessly balanced by mineral precision and ultra-refined tannins. The texture is velvety yet structured, leading to an endlessly persistent finish marked by elegance and poise. A monumental Lafite that epitomizes grace in power, the 2009 is destined for a long evolution in bottle, standing among the estate’s most remarkable achievements of the 21st century.

Lafite Description

Château Lafite Rothschild stands as one of the most legendary names in Bordeaux and the wine world at large, occupying a position of unmatched prestige since its recognition as a Premier Grand Cru Classé in the 1855 Classification. Situated on the northern tip of Pauillac, the estate encompasses over 100 hectares of gravelly soils, perfectly suited to Cabernet Sauvignon. Lafite’s philosophy combines meticulous vineyard management with a restrained, elegant winemaking style, producing wines celebrated for their finesse, aromatic complexity, and extraordinary longevity. It has long been regarded as the quintessential expression of Left Bank grandeur.
