The Château Lafite-Rothschild 2022 shows a deep, inky ruby core with violet highlights, indicating its structural intensity and youthful character. On the nose, this Premier Grand Cru Classé reveals a refined and layered aromatic profile of fresh black and red berries, cassis, violets and floral nuances, underlined by cedary tobacco notes and subtle hints of orange peel and licorice. Gentle French oak spice adds complexity without overpowering the pure fruit expression.
On the palate, it delivers a harmonious balance of lively fruit, fine-grained velvety tannins and saline minerality. The wine’s concentration is impressive, yet it remains elegant and focused, with a long, nuanced finish that reflects classic Bordeaux refinement. Structured and poised, this wine offers both power and finesse, with exceptional aging potential.
