Carruades de Lafite 2019
Carruades de Lafite 2019, the celebrated second wine of Château Lafite Rothschild, embodies the timeless refinement of Pauillac with the approachable charm of youth. This vintage, born from a near-perfect growing season, combines power and poise — a portrait of Cabernet Sauvignon’s elegance shaped by gravelly soils and gentle oak. The result is an effortlessly noble wine: aromatic, layered, and beautifully balanced between intensity and grace.
Carruades de Lafite 2019 is a study in versatility — refined enough for haute cuisine, yet graceful alongside classic fare. Pair it with roast lamb studded with garlic and herbs, filet mignon in truffle jus, or duck breast with cherry reduction. Its freshness makes it a superb match for mushroom risotto, roasted vegetables, or even seared tuna with black pepper crust. For cheese, choose aged Comté, Cantal, or a mild blue like Bleu d’Auvergne. Decant for at least an hour before serving to reveal its full aromatic complexity and silken texture — the hallmark of Lafite’s quiet brilliance.
