The 2016 Carruades de Lafite is an absolute triumph from a legendary, spectacular Bordeaux vintage. This is a monumental wine, boasting profound concentration, power, and density while retaining Lafite's aristocratic elegance. It pours an opaque purple and explodes with intense aromatics of crème de cassis, black cherries, espresso, dark chocolate, and striking graphite minerality. Full-bodied and richly layered, it is built upon a massive framework of ultra-fine, velvety tannins, leading to an epic, minute-long finish. Built to age for decades.
