Merchant's description

Carruades de Lafite 1994 is a full-bodied, blended red wine from the Pauillac appellation of Bordeaux. Second wine of Château Lafite Rothschild, Carruades de Lafite has characteristics close to the Grand Vin with its own personality linked to a higher proportion of Merlot and specific plots intended for the production of Carruades. "Firm structure - quite robust and masculine with dry black earthy fruits. Again austere with a moderate length. For Bordeaux aficionados only!" Wine Advocate, 2000
