Château Lafite Rothschild
Pauillac, Médoc, Left Bank, Bordeaux, France
Lafite is one of the greatest wines of Bordeaux and one of the four châteaux originally classed as "First Growths" (Premier Grand Cru) in 1855 - owned by the Rothschild family since 1868.
“Lafite has a soul, a beautiful, generous, kindly soul. Lafite turns bare earth into heaven. Lafite is harmony, a harmony between man and nature, because without our magnificent winegrowers, nothing would be accomplished.” Baron Eric de Rothschild
In 1815, Guillaume Lawton said of Château Lafite, “I consider it to be the most elegant and delicate, with the finest sub-stance of the three (Premier Crus). The location of its vines is one of the finest in the Médoc”.
