From $885 at retail and $675 at the best web price, down to a swoon-worthy $599 from us today! The 2019 vintage has been anointed as one of the greatest Bordeaux harvests of the 21st century, with Lafite pulling scores as high as 99 POINTS from the world's foremost critics. Nine bottles. (Up to) nine extraordinarily lucky human beings. And you have our complete and unconditional permission to buy as many as you can!
A brief history — because this estate has earned every syllable of it: Lafite's roots trace all the way back to 1234, its name derived from the Gascon "la hite," meaning simply "hillock." The Ségur family shaped it into a world-class estate in the 17th century. King Louis XV declared it his ultimate favorite in the 1750s, launching Lafite to genuine global legend. Thomas Jefferson personally visited and purchased cases “ex Chateau”. In 1855, it was enshrined as one of the five original Bordeaux First Growths — a designation it has never once relinquished. The Rothschild family has owned it since 1868, and today Saskia de Rothschild — the sixth generation — carries that unbroken torch with extraordinary grace. This is not just a wine. It is the most enduring liquid monument Western civilization has ever produced.
Dense, concentrated blackcurrant and cassis shot through with cedar, pencil lead, and graphite minerality — all framed by a tannin architecture of breathtaking precision and a finish that stretches toward some indeterminate horizon and simply keeps going. This wine needs years to fully reveal itself and will be drinking magnificently through 2060 and well beyond. What…a…LEGEND!
Vive la France!!! Vive Lafite!
**All Bastille Day orders will be combined and shipped from our West Coast warehouse. We’ll be packing your orders as fast as humanly possible, and you can expect up to 1-2 weeks for your orders to ship. We appreciate your patience and promise it’s worth the wait!**
