Carruades de Lafite - Pauillac |
|
|
 Vorhang auf für eines der berühmtesten und besten Weingüter der Welt: Château Lafite Rothschild mit seinem Zweitwein Carruades de Lafite. Chateau Lafite Rothschild ist einer der 5 Premier Crus. 1234 wurde Chateau Lafite erstmal urkundlich erwähnt. Das Gut gehörte der Familie Segur, die Sie von Château Calon Segur kennen. Der gleichen Familie gehörte damals übrigens auch Château Latour - da hätte man einheiraten müssen. Nachdem Chateau Lafite durch mehrere Hände ging, unter anderem den Vanderberghs aus Dänemark, wurde es 1868 von Baron James de Rothschild erworben. Und erst seitdem heißt es Lafite Rothschild. Das aristokratische Chateau Lafite Rothschild liegt inmitten eines kleinen Parks. 112 Hektar stehen unter Reben, aber das Gelände, das zum Betrieb gehört, ist viel größer. So leben auf einer Fläche von fast 50 Hektar, inmitten von Marschland, Wäldern und Wiesen, Kühe einer alten, wilden Rasse. Weder geben die Tiere Fleisch, noch werden sie gemolken. Sie dürfen einfach ein schönes Leben führen. Und das haben Sie auch, wenn Sie sich mit dem Wein befassen, der hier gekeltert wird. Die Cuvée des Grand Vin von Lafite Rothschild variiert von Jahr zu Jahr ein wenig. Er besteht zu 80% bis 95% aus Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot schwankt zwischen 5% und 20%, Cabernet Franc und Petit Verdot sind mit je höchstens 5% enthalten. Übrigens: Wussten Sie, dass manche Jahrgänge des Lafite fast reinsortige Cabernet Sauvignons sind? 1961 zum Beispiel, 1994 und auch 2013. Diese Weine sind ebenfalls ausnehmend gut, ihnen fehlt aber ein wenig die Komplexität, zu der ein Lafite Rothschild fähig ist. Die Produktion des Grand Vin umfasst bis zu 20.000 Kisten, der Ausbau im Fass erfolgt für 18 bis 20 Monate in komplett neuen Fässern.

Einer der gehyptesten Weine in ganz Bordeaux, unter den Zweitweinen ohnehin mit ganz großem Abstand die Nummer eins. Asien kauft hiervon jede einzelne Flasche, daraus resultiert der Preis. Wenn Sie nun meinen, dass es hier nur spekulative Begehrlichkeit geht, weit gefehlt. Carruades de Lafite ist ein absolut seriöser, völlig eigenständiger Wein. In Jahrgängen wie 2019 ein großer Wein!
92-94 THE WINEADVOCATE: "The 2019 Carruades de Lafite is a blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc, harvested from the 19th of September to the 7th of October. Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, it comes skipping out of the glass with bright, fresh notions of wild blueberries, ripe plums and redcurrant jelly plus hints of cinnamon stick, cumin seed, oolong tea and violets with a waft of black olives. Medium-bodied, the palate delivers loads of rich, ripe, spicy flavors with a soft texture of nicely rounded tannins and with the freshness in the background, finishing on a lingering allspice note. In a word: Yum!"
17,5 JANCIS ROBINSON: "More Cabernet and less Merlot than usual, and it shows. Bright and fresh, even tangy on the palate, with very fine tannins, the fruit breezy and gourmand. Touch of mint to the dense, dark fruit. Super length. Lots of charm. (JL)"
93 DECANTER: "As with the Duhart, this is very Pauillac, with pencil lead and cedar notes, and the highest amount of Cabernet Sauvignon in Carruades to date. Subdued on the nose, but it opens up with a lovely floral character. It starts off with frank, autumnal fruit on the attack, majoring on brambly plum, with tannins that build up through the palate and do their job of tugging things back, putting on the brakes. A little more straight laced than the 2018, but one that you would be more than happy to own and to share. Has the drinkability that Lafite prides itself on."
95-96 JAMES SUCKLING: " The purity of fruit is so enticing here with strawberries, flowers, lavender and currants. Black earth, too. Some stone and cement. It’s full-bodied with firm, fine tannins. It shows so much cabernet sauvignon character. It’s 68% cabernet sauvignon, 27% merlot and the rest cabernet franc."
91-93 ANTONIO GALLONI: " The 2019 Carruades de Lafite was picked right up until 7 October in order to obtain the fleshiness from the Merlots, which represent 27% of the blend, much lower than previous years. It is raised in 30% new oak. This is certainly a fuller and more complete bouquet than I have discerned in previous Carruades with ample red berry fruit, sous-bois and light sea spray aromas - more refined and detailed than expected. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins that impart a creamy texture. This is a luxuriant Deuxième Vin from Lafite-Rothschild, more sensual with vivid red cherries and cranberry fruit laced with white pepper towards the finish, then a tang of graphite that lingers on the aftertaste. Best Carruades ever? Probably." - Neal Martin
92-94 ANTONIO GALLONI: "The 2019 Carruades de Lafite is sexy, open knit and wonderfully inviting, with all of the seductiveness of the vintage on display. Ripe red cherry, red plum, rose petal, mint and spice are lifted by the savory intensity of the Cabernets, which at 73% are the highest ever for Carruades.
Technical Director Eric Kohler describes 2019 as an easier vintage than 2018, a year that saw quite a bit of disease pressure and extremes of temperature. Kohler added that while 2019 was hot, it was consistently hot, and therefore the vines adapted to the conditions as opposed to being shocked by sudden changes. Yields were a very classic 36-40 hectoliters per hectare, depending on the property. Cuvaison was about three weeks, with gentle extractions. As always one of the signatures at Lafite is the use of a portion of press lots in the final blends."
93-95 THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Flowers, cocoa, earth, cherries and tobacco leaf on the nose. The medium-bodied wine is refined, elegant and lifted, with a focus on the sweetness and purity in the fruits. Bright, polished, and classic in nature, this is a definitive look at the stylings of Lafite Rothschild. The wine was made from blending 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon."
94-96 JEB DUNNUCK: "The second wine of the estate, the 2019 Carruades De Lafite offers a beautiful, Lafite-like bouquet of crème de cassis, cedar pencil, tobacco, and new leather. Gorgeously complex, medium to full-bodied, with silky tannins, and a great finish, it´s a brilliant wine that would certainly do just fine in a blind lineup of Lafite. The blend is 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, and 5% Cabernet Franc."

Wir verlieren hierzu nicht viele Worte. Chateau Lafite Rothschild, die, eine kleine Anekdote nebenbei, als Pauillac auch Lagen in St. Estephe!!! haben, und diese verwenden dürfen, ist seit dem Einstieg von Jean Guillaume Prats als Direktor, nochmals in eine andere Liga aufgestiegen. Das Asien hieran seit Jahrzehnten erhebliches Interesse hat, interessiert nicht. Wir sehen die Qualität an allererster Stelle. Und der 2019er ist ein Meilenstein in der Weingeschichte. Unglaublich wie grandios sich 2019 Chateau Lafite Rothschild verkostete. Wenn hier die 100 nicht kommen, wo dann?
97-99 THE WINEADVOCATE: "The 2019 Lafite Rothschild is a blend of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot, harvested from the 19th of September to the 7th of October. Deep garnet-purple in color, it rolls effortlessly out of the glass with compelling notions of baked black cherries, ripe blackberries and crème de cassis followed by hints of mocha, licorice, smoked meats and Sichuan pepper with a waft of eucalyptus. Medium-bodied, the palate is at once ethereally graceful and powerfully intense, featuring layer upon layer of profound smoky, savory flavors and decadently ripe fruit, framed by exquisite, silt-like tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with epic length. In terms of flavor profile, this is a surprisingly (atypically) hedonic, forward expression, with notably lower acidity/higher pH (the pH is 3.9). The alcohol is 13.4%, just a tick higher than the 2018 (13.3%). And yet, the tannins here are unmistakably Lafite, featuring all the tannic grace, finesse and densely pixilated poise fans will expect. What an exciting paradox for the palate—bravo!"
19 JANCIS ROBINSON: "94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot. Barrel sample.
Supreme elegance in the Lafite mould. Fresh and fragrant on the nose with mineral, cedar and dark-fruit notes. Poise and precision on the palate, the attack clean and direct, the tannins long and linear but enrobed in ripe fruit. Dense but with a reined-in discretion. Silky texture and overall great freshness. Just edges the 2018 for freshness and finesse. (JL)"
98 DECANTER: "Performs the trick of being immediately succulent and mouthwatering while simultaneously revving up and building power through the palate. You´re getting sapidity and savoury black fruits that are both elegant and full of power. The spicy rosemary and black pepper, with slate-textured minerality, is almost unnoticeable until it closes in on the final stretch, helping to stretch things out, beat by beat, adding energy and lift. One half of the 5% Merlot in this blend is from plots that have never before been used in Lafite´s 1st wine, because their drone and satellite research discovered three tiny areas that were similar in character and could be vinified together. They have worked on this for the past three years, successfully so for first time in 2019. It just holds on tight, with a creaminess that you don´t always find in Lafite at this early stage. A brilliant wine, one that could be upscored from this when in bottle. Harvest September 19 to October 7."
99-100 JAMES SUCKLING: " Complex aromas of blackcurrants and lead pencil. Incredible. Graphite and tar. Stunning. It’s full-bodied, yet shows such harmony and polish. Elegance and complexity with finesse. The tannins are so integrated and endless. It goes on for minutes. 94% cabernet sauvignon, 5% merlot and 1% petit verdot."
96-98 ANTONIO GALLONI: "The 2019 Lafite-Rothschild was picked from 19 September with the Merlots, pausing during a rainy spell and then picked through to 7 October. The blend includes what Eric Kohler calls "outsider" parcels that met the grade, including some of the Merlot on more clayey soils (see introduction) as well as 13.5% vin de presse. Alcohol here is some half a degree lower than many of its peers at around 13.4%. It has a very sensual bouquet, not a common feature in this First Growth, with generous black fruit infused with pencil box, sous-bois and discrete white pepper aromas. The oak is beautifully subsumed by the fruit already. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent, rounded tannins that lend this Lafite its creamy femme fatale texture and disguise its backbone. More powerful than expected, this builds in the mouth towards an atypically corpulent, dense finish that seems to "flow" across the senses. There is not a single hair out of place. I can envisage this firming up during its élevage and deserving more bottle age than seemingly appropriate at this juncture. Whatever its drinking plateau turns out to be, it is certainly a wonderful Lafite-Rothschild that pips the 2018 and revels in the growing season." - Neal Martin
96-98 ANTONIO GALLONI: "The 2019 Lafite-Rothschild is sensual, alluring and simply breathtaking in its beauty. A vivid, towering Lafite, the 2019 simply has it all. Even with all of its intensity, the 2019 possesses striking minerality and tension that give the wine its sense of drive and precision. it is a stunning wine by any measure. The blend is 94% Cabernet 5% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot, including some Merlot from clay-rich parcels that are new to the Grand Vin."
98-100 THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "This is a beautiful example of what Chateau Lafite Rothschild does best. Dark garnet in color and aromatic, you find lead pencil, cedar, forest, tobacco wrapper, mint and black with red fruit scents. The most elegant of all the First Growths, the wine, classic in nature, is refined, pure, bright, focused, precise and long. There is an intensity that expands as the wine graces your palate, before moving to the finish that is all about the extraordinary purity in the fruits. The wine blends 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot. The Merlot was harvested September 19-September 25. Cabernet Sauvignon was picked September 22-October 7. The wine reached 13.4% alcohol with pH of 3.9. The Grand Vin was produced from only 40% of the harvest with yields of 38 hectoliters per hectare."
98-100 JEB DUNNUCK: "A truly great Lafite, and maybe the wine of the vintage, the 2019 Château Lafite-Rothschild reveals a deep purple color as well as an ultra-classic bouquet of crème de cassis, lead pencil, unsmoked tobacco, chocolate, and gravelly minerality. Deep, full-bodied, and flawlessly balanced, it´s a magical, heavenly bottle of wine that´s going to be approachable with just 5-6 years of bottle age yet evolve for 100 years or more. It reminds me of the 2016, only with a touch more sexiness and opulence."
