The 2012 Chateau Lafite Rothschild is a testament to the grandeur of Pauillac terroir, offering a symphony of complexity and elegance. With a medium to deep ruby hue, the wine greets you with a bouquet of dust and pencil shavings, underpinned by bright red fruit and a touch of vanilla. The palate is a harmonious blend of red currant, cedar, vanilla, and cocoa, supported by fine, silky tannins. The alcohol is well-balanced, contributing to the wine's overall harmony, and culminating in a deliciously long finish. This vintage, while challenging due to weather conditions, has been expertly crafted to showcase the precision and freshness that are hallmarks of this esteemed estate.
