Carruades de Lafite
Carruades de Lafite is the name of a line of wines produced by the famous Château Lafite Rothschild, a prestigious winery located in the Bordeaux region of France. Carruades de Lafite is considered the "second wine" of Château Lafite Rothschild, meaning that it is made from grapes sourced from the same vineyards as the château's main wine, but from selections of younger grapes or less prestigious vineyard parcels. Carruades de Lafite wines are mainly red wines made from Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot grapes. They are produced with the same meticulous attention to detail as the château's main wine, and are aged in French oak barrels for a variable period, generally shorter than the main wine. Although Carruades de Lafite is considered the "second wine," this does not mean that they are inferior wines. In fact, these wines are of the highest quality and offer an exceptional taste experience, although perhaps less complex and ageable than the main Château Lafite Rothschild wine. They are often more affordable in terms of price than the main wine, making them more accessible to wine lovers

The name "Carruades" is partly linked to the estate's history, and derives from an ancient unit of measurement used to quantify the size of Château Lafite Rothschild's vineyards in the 18th century. Ultimately, Lafite Carruades offer an opportunity to taste the magic of Château Lafite Rothschild at a relatively lower cost than their main wine. They are appreciated for their elegance, structure and aromas of black fruits and spices, and are considered quality wines by wine lovers the world over
