Lafite Rothschild 2023

Lafite Rothschild, Balancing Forces There’s no need to grandstand to make one’s presence felt. It’s all a question of balancing forces and 2023 taught us how precious the art of equilibrium can be. This year, Lafite has made its presence felt discreetly, without attracting attention. These plots of land are living, and every stage of their vines’ development must be handled meticulously. It’s a question of observing, adapting and reacting to the elements we face. While the months of rain followed by successive heatwaves meant we feared a devastating shock to the vines at Château Lafite Rothschild, in fact they continued their trajectory serenely, unbothered by the changeable weather. From extraction to assemblage, each operation was coordinated to the millisecond to protect the wine. A quiet power was born from this year’s assemblage.
