The name comes from the Carruades plateau, a group of plots acquired in 1845 just next to the vines on the Château hilltop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"reviewsContainer viewMoreModule\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"viewMoreModule_text viewMoreModule-reviews\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_list\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_rating\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"wineRatings_rating\"\u003e94 Points - \u003c\/span\u003eJames Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_rating\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProfessionalReviews_review\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipSecContent_copy\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo much rich, sweet tobacco with currants and spices, as well as graphite.

Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it prances out of the glass with joyful notions of black cherries, redcurrant jelly and cassis plus hints of kirsch, cedar chest, pencil lead and a waft of raspberry leaves. Medium-bodied, the palate possesses bags of poise and freshness, dishing out lots of bright red and black fruits with a soft, finely grained frame, finishing long with a skip in its step.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Connect Logistics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43862057287910,"sku":"834867","price":390.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/3759\/5545\/files\/pzfgfgaghuh6aptc1yjb_46adcac3-14d6-43ba-8318-a19aa573b1b0.jpg?v=1753215293","url":"https:\/\/www.bswliquor.com\/products\/carruades-lafite-rothschild-2017","provider":"BSW Liquor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
