CHATEAU LAFITE ROTHSCHILD, 1991

PAUILLAC

1991 est une année difficile marquée par des pluies abondantes, produisant des vins légers et délicats. Élégant et subtil, le Château Lafite Rothschild 1991 dévoilent peu à peu dans le verre des arômes de fruits noirs, de cèdre et de tabac. Les tanins sont très fins et la finale est persistante et harmonieuse.

History and anecdotes
The château located in Médoc, was classified as Premier Cru in the 1855 classification, in Pauillac appellation. The Château Lafite Rothschild history started in the 13th century.. Until the 17th century, the estate was a co-lordship whose co-owners received the rents from farmers who were cultivating the lands, some of which were already dedicated to the culture of vine. Between 1670 and 1680, Jacques de Ségure structured the vineyard. In 1868, Baron James de Rothschild acquired Château Lafite.
