Château Lafargue Red 2018 – Cuvée Prestige – Pessac-Léognan
Château Lafargue Red 2018 – Cuvée Prestige – Pessac-Léognan
Cuvée made from a selection of vieilles vignes (vines over 40 years old), aged for 16 to 18 months in barrels. Fairly deep colour with glints of ruby. Very expressive nose, with quite intense notes of oak, vanilla and toast, and notes of black fruit in the background. On the palate, the attack is full-bodied with silky tannins, well integrated with the oak. Very good aromatic length with retronasal aromas of ripe fruit and toasted notes.
