รายละเอียดสินค้า
A restrained yet aristocratic expression of one of Bordeaux’s greatest estates, the 2015 vintage from Lafite shows both pedigree and finesse—Cabernet Sauvignon dominance, elegant tannic structure and the hallmark graphite‑cedar signature of Pauillac.
wine score
This is a great vintage from Lafite. The profile is rich in feel, with a seriously firm tannic structure. Solid, complex and with great authority, this Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant wine, is impressively dense in dark-fruit tones. It will age for many years. Drink from 2027, although that would almost be too soon.
The deep garnet-purple shaded 2015 Lafite Rothschild is blended of 91% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Merlot and was matured for 20 months in new oak barrels from Tonnellerie des Domaines (their own cooperage). It is still sporting a lot of cedar at this nascent stage with a vibrant core of black raspberries, red currants and crushed plums plus touches of cigar boxes, violets and underbrush with a waft of tilled loam. Medium-bodied and elegantly styled with wonderful freshness and depth, it is compellingly earthy/minerally in the mouth with a frame of seductively silky yet very firm tannins and culminating in a very long, racy and pure finish. Boasting spectacular finesse and packed with nuances, clearly, given some of the challenges here in 2015, this is a masterpiece of diligence in the vineyards, careful selection and very clever crafting—bravo!
Wine Spectator
Velvet- and silk-textured red currant, raspberry and black cherry compote notes glide through, supported by a perfectly embedded graphite spine, while enticing violet, black tea and alder accents add range through the finish. Very refined and sneakily long. Best from 2025 through 2045.
Lead and graphite are complimented by notes of blueberries and blackberries. Blackcurrants, too. Full-bodied and focused with very round and polished tannins. Elegance with power. Very classic nature for Lafite. Try in 2022.

รสสัมผัส (Palate)
The intensity on the palate rises steadily... gently coming to rest on a plateau that is already very high. Not at all aggressive, it continues with great length, and in perfect harmony.
สี (Colour)
Very dark color, with purple glints, indicating that the wine is still very much in its youth.
กลิ่น (Aroma)
Notes of fresh strawberries and tobacco, in which the wood has become perfectly integrated. The attack is simultaneously supple and very powerful.

The Unfolding of a Pauillac Legend
For centuries the estate of Château Lafite Rothschild has stood at the pinnacle of Bordeaux’s Left Bank, its gravel-rich vineyards overlooking the Gironde estuary. With its designation as a Premier Grand Cru Classé in 1855, the estate continues to be a benchmark for terroir-driven excellence.
The 2015 vintage embraced the full gravitas of this terroir: after a mild, dry winter the vines benefited from an early, uniform flowering and summer heat moderated by estuarine breezes, with August rains bringing freshness and aiding veraison. Grapes were vinified plot by plot, matured for around 20 months in 100% new oak from the estate’s own cooperage, and only the best barrels were selected for the Grand Vin.
Although understated in its youth, this 2015 Lafite embodies the estate’s creed of finesse over flash, promising long-term evolution with hallmark graphite and cedar signatures and the elegance that only time in bottle will unlock.
