Description
Lisa Perrotti-Brown: The 2018 Carruades de Lafite is composed of56.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot and 5.5% Cabernet Franc. TheMerlot was harvested September 17-24, the Cabernet Sauvignon washarvested September 25 to October 5, and the Cabernet Franc washarvested September 24. Deep garnet-purple colored, it reveals avery serious nose of pencil shavings, black tea, violets and darkchocolate with earthy wafts of underbrush and mossy bark over acore of warm cassis, blackberry preserves and black raspberries.Medium to full-bodied, the densely packed, black-fruited palate islaced with loads of compelling mineral sparks with a firm, grainyframe and beautiful freshness to lift the long, earthy finish.
