Robert Parker (91)

The 2017 Carruades de Lafite is a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it prances out of the glass with joyful notions of black cherries, redcurrant jelly and cassis plus hints of kirsch, cedar chest, pencil lead and a waft of raspberry leaves. Medium-bodied, the palate possesses bags of poise and freshness, dishing out lots of bright red and black fruits with a soft, finely grained frame, finishing long with a skip in its step.

James Suckling (89)

Ripe and direct, featuring cherry and currant notes lined with singed vanilla and mesquite accents, showing a tug of sweet tobacco at the very end. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc.
