Heiner Lobenberg om:
Carruades de Lafite Rothschild 2018

94+
/100

Lobenberg: Den anden vin fra Lafite Rothschild kommer med 56,5% Cab. Sauvignon, 38% Merlot og 5,5% Cab Franc. Vinen kommer fra vingårdens egne og andre parceller. På trods af den høje Cabernet-dominans har Carruades altid en mørk, krydret næse, noget Merlot-tung. Fin lakrids, lidt sorte kirsebær og cassis, brombær, ganske fint, men meget typisk for Pauillac med et lidt maskulint præg underneden. Stor friskhed i munden, høj intensitet, slank cassis, sorte kirsebær, absolut en elegant vin uden nogen egentlig storhed. Og stort set altid en spøgefuld position, for Carruades er utrolig dyr og noget bagud i forhold til husets anden ejendom, Duhart Milon. 94+/100

Årsrapporten

Den enestående årgang 2018 går fra succes til succes i Bordeaux. Efter et ekstremt vådt forår fulgte en perfekt, tør drømmesommer, der sikrede en fænomenal frugtkoncentration. På trods af mild syre imponerer vinene takket være en storslået balance, en silkeagtig struktur og uendelig finesse.

Suckling om: Carruades de Lafite Rothschild

-- Suckling: This is an extremely fine-grained Carraudes with a complex character of chocolate, walnut, cedar and a hint of graphite. Medium-to full-bodied, tight and chewy but, at the same time, agile and light. Savory finish. Special. 95-96/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Carruades de Lafite Rothschild

-- Jeb Dunnuck: The second wine of Lafite is the 2018 Carruades De Lafite (56.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc). This ruby/purple colored effort offers classic Lafite elegance and purity as well as lead pencil, red and black currants, and tobacco. Elegant, silky, ultra-fine and beautifully balanced, with ripe tannins, it's a smoking second wine that’s going to keep for 2-3 decades. 94-96/100

Galloni om: Carruades de Lafite Rothschild

The 2018 Carruades de Lafite is delicate, sensual and elegant, with a striking interplay of finesse and power. A wine of total allure and translucence, the 2018 Carruades is so silky, so finessed, so classy. Sweet red/purplish fruit, lavender, rose petal and spice are all finely knit in a Pauillac of tremendous class. Harvest started on September 17 and wrapped up on October 5 for the Cabernets. 93/100

Parker om: Carruades de Lafite Rothschild

-- Parker: The 2018 Carruades de Lafite is composed of 56.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot and 5.5% Cabernet Franc. The Merlot was harvested September 17-24, the Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested September 25 to October 5, and the Cabernet Franc was harvested September 24. Deep garnet-purple colored, it reveals a very serious nose of pencil shavings, black tea, violets and dark chocolate with earthy wafts of underbrush and mossy bark over a core of warm cassis, blackberry preserves and black raspberries. Medium to full-bodied, the densely packed, black-fruited palate is laced with loads of compelling mineral sparks with a firm, grainy frame and beautiful freshness to lift the long, earthy finish. 92-94/100
