Tasting Notes

Vinous 92

The 2021 Carruades de Lafite is gorgeous. Supple, dynamic and lively, the 2021 pulses with energy. It’s a wine of vibrancy. Dark cherry fruit, plum, grilled herbs and graphite all build effortlessly in the glass. There’s a bit of graininess in the tannin, yet all the elements are impeccably balanced. There’s a ton to like, that’s for sure. [Antonio Galloni, 27/02/2024]
