Herbal lift from mint and eucalyptus can't mask the wine's fundamental lack of harmony. The palate feels choppy and angular where Lafite should flow with seamless grace. What's most troubling is the abrupt, hollow finish that abandons you just when depth should emerge. A First Growth trading on reputation rather than delivering the goods.

The benchmark First Growth of Pauillac, Lafite-Rothschild has set the reference point for Cabernet Sauvignon-led Médoc for centuries. Carruades de Lafite serves as the estate's second label.
