Carruades de Lafite 2019
CRITIC REVIEWS
James Suckling
This is a beautiful Carraudes with currant, sweet-tobacco and wet-earth aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with a dense center-palate and tight, polished tannins. Fresh, with tension. Reminds me of the 1995 Lafite. This is so Lafite in character. It shows so much cabernet sauvignon character. It’s 68% cabernet sauvignon, 27% merlot and the rest cabernet franc. Try after 2026.
Lisa Perrotti-Brown
The 2019 Carruades de Lafite, a blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc, is deep garnet-purple in color. Notions of sauteed herbs, damp soil, and tapenade waft from the glass over a core of redcurrant preserves, baked plums, and tilled soil. The medium-bodied palate is chewy and subtly fruited, with a soft-spoken finish.
