Carruades de Lafite, Pauillac, Bordeaux, 2015, 6x75cl

£1,030.00

A great vintage for Lafite means a great vintage for Carruades, and here we have it! Loads of ripe red fruit, quite round and wilted floral character. Wet river stones over sweet fruit. Palate has deep sweet jam and a bit of game. Nice tannins; quite smooth and elegant.

94 points - James Suckling

“Lead-pencil aromas with currants and plums, too. Full body, silky tannins and a focused and very refined finish. It's the tannins that drive things. An excellent second wine of Lafite. Needs two or three years to soften. Start drinking from 2021.”
