Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2012
Product Description
2012 was characterized by difficult weather conditions in the Bordeaux region.
After a relatively mild winter, the spring was mostly wet and rainy, especially April, with a hail storm
on the 24th. Such conditions hampered fertilization, leading to fears of reduced yields. Work in the
vineyard was as vital as ever.
June and July alternated heat and humidity. The weather became more stable from the beginning
of August, enabling the healthy grapes to finish ripening in good conditions.
Nevertheless, there was considerable variation in their degrees of ripeness and a great deal of
sorting work was carried out by our teams from the end September.

Critics Review
James Suckling - 95 PointsSuperb structure for the vintage with blackcurrants, cedar, mushroom and sweet tobacco character. Full-bodied yet reserved and tight with an impressive density. Long finish. Better in 2020.
