som forener storhed

Unwinding in the glass with deep aromas of wild berries

with a velvety attack that segues into a sweet

suave and enveloping

which gives the champagne a dry and precise Extra Brut style with great energy and purity

Château Lafite Rothschild, Pauillac, 2024, 75cl Løse flasker som forener storhedThe finest of the first growths this year appears to be the 2023 Lafite Rothschild, a terrific effort that unwinds in the glass with deep and incipiently complex aromas of cassis, pencil shavings, lilac and violets mingled with hints of cigar wrapper and mint. Medium to full bodied, layered and concentrated, it's vibrant and refined, with a deep core of fruit, plenty of sweet structuring tannin and a compelling marriage between energy and plenitude.
