Anseillan is a rare cuvée from Ch Lafite Rothschild and very close to the family’s heart. It is not a declassified wine but a unique property within Lafite that was produced by the Lafite team and aged in the Lafite cellars. The 2014 combines Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot to produce a stunning representation of this sensational Pauillac terroir that has the added attraction of being accessible in its youth without losing its ageing potential. Offered in the hard-to-find magnum format, it is drinking handsomely already.

Winery | Anseillan is not a new wine from the Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite stable. Anseillan has always been an integral part of Lafite, yet it is a completely separate wine in its own right. Not a Château, Anseillan is a wine named for a 'lieu-dit' - a named locality - within the Château Lafite Rothschild estate and was first released in 2021 with the 2018 vintage. The village of Anseillan lies 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. Anseillan is a blend of meticulously selected vineyard plots, born after years of intense scrutiny, research, and trials by Château Lafite’s technical teams. Located at the very heart of the hamlet, they have been defined precisely within the AOC Pauillac. Cooler and later, they are more clayey than Lafite’s classic terroirs because of their northern exposure. This terroir and the teams’ work give Anseillan’s wine a unique style and excellent complexity. |
