Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2024

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (94)

91-94
A blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot, the 2024 Lafite Rothschild offers up aromas of minty blackcurrants, violets, incense, loamy soil and cigar box, followed by a medium-bodied, pillowy and open-knit palate built around tangy acids and powdery tannins, concluding with a discreetly herbal finish. Harvest began on September 24 and concluded on October 4, delivering a Lafite in something of a throwback style, nodding to the wines made here in the 1970s

Falstaff (95)

Deep dark ruby, deep core, violet reflections. Fine herbal savouriness, red berryish touch, a hint of cassis, but also red cherries. A touch of oak. On the palate taut, red berryish and fresh, silky tannins, lively acidity, nuances of currant, mineral, delicate and light-footed, a refined food wine with good ageing potential.
