Product details
The Lafite Rothschild 1945–2019 Collection is an extraordinary anthology of 75 vintages from one of the world's most esteemed wine estates. Spanning three-quarters of a century, this collection encapsulates the evolution of Château Lafite Rothschild, a First Growth estate in Pauillac, Bordeaux, under the stewardship of the Rothschild family since 1868. Each bottle reflects the estate's unwavering commitment to excellence, from the legendary 1945 vintage—celebrated for its concentration and historical significance—to the exceptional 2019 vintage, which received a perfect 100-point score from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, lauded as “impeccably balanced” and “one of the greatest wines produced in Bordeaux this year.”
Crafted predominantly from Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, these wines are renowned for their elegance, complexity, and longevity. The collection offers a sensory journey through time, showcasing the nuanced variations imparted by each vintage's unique terroir and climate conditions. Ideal pairings include classic French cuisine such as roast lamb, duck confit, or aged cheeses, which harmonize with the wines' depth and sophistication. This unparalleled collection not only serves as a testament to Château Lafite Rothschild's storied legacy but also as a coveted treasure for collectors and connoisseurs alike.
