Producer

Producer

The vineyards of Château Lafite Rothschild stretch across gravelly soils, typical of the Pauillac appellation. The soil, composed of gravel, clay, and limestone, contributes to the unique expression of the cultivated grape varieties. The temperate oceanic climate, with hot summers and mild winters, promotes a slow and even ripening of the grapes. This exceptional terroir, combined with time-honored expertise, yields grapes of outstanding quality, essential to the production of such renowned wines.

Owner and history

Château Lafite Rothschild is currently owned by the Rothschild family, who have preserved the heritage and excellence of this iconic estate. Since 1868, the Rothschilds have implemented sustainable and innovative practices while respecting the traditions that have made this wine famous. Their commitment to quality and the environment is evident in every bottle, reflecting an unwavering passion for wine and the terroir.

Vinification and aging

Winemaking at Château Lafite Rothschild is a meticulous process, blending tradition and innovation. The grapes are harvested by hand and then carefully sorted to retain only the finest. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and oak vats, allowing for a gentle extraction of tannins. Aging, lasting approximately 18 months, occurs in French oak barrels, some of which are renewed annually. This attention to detail at every stage guarantees wines of great complexity and rare elegance.
