Carruades de Lafite 2021
Second wine of Château Lafite Rothschild, Carruades de Lafite has characteristics similar to those of the Grand Vin with its own personality linked to a higher proportion of Merlot and to specific plots of land destined for the production of Carruades.
The origin of the name comes from the "plateau des Carruades", the place name of a group of plots of land adjacent to the Château's hilltop and acquired in 1845.
