From the Producer

Château Lafite Rothschild is a Pauillac estate in Bordeaux's Médoc, rated a First Growth (Premier Cru) under the 1855 Bordeaux Classification and in Rothschild family ownership since Baron James Mayer Rothschild purchased the property in 1868. The 107-hectare vineyard is planted mostly to Cabernet Sauvignon (around 70%) alongside Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, and the wine is typically blended from roughly 80–95% Cabernet Sauvignon with the balance made up from those other varieties; about a third of the property's output is released separately as the second wine, Carruades de Lafite.
