It is produced in the capable hands of the Lafite teams, in the Lafite cellars, with the same love and passion. While production may vary from vintage to vintage, the quality never falters. The village of Anseillan lies to the east of Lafite Rothschild, between the Château and the Gironde. This area presents a wide variety of terroirs which are the subject of much thought and research. Cooler and later because of their northern exposure, there is also more clay than Lafite's classic terroirs. This terroir and the Lafite teams' work give Anseillan's wine a unique style and excellent complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVegetarian\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Store in a cool dry place\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bottle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecycling information:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAllergen Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e Contains Sulphur Dioxide\/Sulphites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety:\u003c\/strong\u003e 63% Merlot, 37% Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent vintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol by volume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.10% vol\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnits:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.83 units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinemaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eric Kohler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgent:\u003c\/strong\u003e Goedhuis Waddesdon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand details:\u003c\/strong\u003e Today, Saskia de Rothschild, the youngest chairperson in the history of Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite, continues this tradition of excellence while bringing a fresh perspective to it's future. Under her leardership, the estate remains dedicated to expressing the nuances of its exceptional Pauillac terroir while embracing innovation and sustainability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory:\u003c\/strong\u003e On its plateau of mythical gravel, the men and women who work in its vines are only intermediaries. And for 150 years, with the arrival of Baron James, members of the same family have been taking turns to pass on a single message: that of precision and resilience in the face of the tremendous blows that the heavens rain down on its lands. In this eternal new beginning, in this inconstancy of nature which has a different fate in store for it each year, Lafite remains upright, sensitive and subtle. It has the nature of the wise, unchangeable like its everlasting gravels. But while it has been around for over a thousand seasons, its roots tell us it is already writing all our futures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegional information:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pauillac enjoys exceptional climatic and geological conditions to make outstanding wines.

Alcoholic fermentation is conducted in wooden, concrete and stainless steel vats. Gentle pumping-over helps to ensure a soft extraction and is carried out according to the specific characteristics of each tank. Total maceration time lasts for about 20 days. After malolactic fermentation, wines are transfered into French oak barrels made by the Tonnelleries des Domaines in Pauillac for a period of 16 months approximately.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"M\u0026S","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48331393106158,"sku":"STO-ITEM-2026-274824","price":93.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/0125\/9183\/files\/640x640_5833eb80-9a04-4d94-9770-e734dad6ee92.jpg?v=1784223155","url":"https:\/\/mcgrocer.com\/products\/chateau-lafite-anseillan-pauillac-bordeaux-red-wine-2026274824","provider":"McGrocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
