CHÂTEAU LAFITE ROTHSCHILD<br />
Château Lafite is one of the most renowned<br />
wineries in the Médoc and also has one of the<br />
largest estates. The name Lafite comes from the<br />
Gascon term “la hite” meaning “small hill”. The<br />
current owners, the Rothschilds, bought the<br />
property in 1866 and have invested heavily in the<br />
vineyard and cellar to maintain their excellent<br />
reputation. Their wines are often described as being<br />
very perfumed and elegant, compared to the other<br />
first growths which can be more powerful.<br />
