with a lively palate from the cool vintage

the nose of the 2017 Le Marquis de Calon-Ségur is meaty and earthy with baked plums

Carruades de Lafite 2015 St Aubin The Dal Forno family consideredSecond Wine of CHATEAU LAFITE ROTHSCHILD (First Growth). Lead pencil aromas with currants and plums, too. Full body, silky tannins and a focused and very refined finish. It's the tannins that drive things. An excellent second wine of Lafite. Needs two or three years to soften. Start drinking in 2021. ~ James Suckling 94pts 93 95 Wine Enthusiast 94 James Suckling 91 Vinous 89 91 Wine Advocate
