Sommelier's Notes

Built in the early 19th century, this imposing building made of honey- coloured stone is the heart of a magnificent wine estate located near the city of Bordeaux. Situated in the Bordeaux Supérieur appellation, in a place named «Lafitte», the estate dates back to the late 18th century. Until the 1980s, it was called simply... Château Lafitte (!), and belonged to Mr Floréal-Laguens, a man with a strong personality known far and wide as a healer !


After many trials and tribulations opposing the estate and the famous château of (nearly) the same name, the name «Lafitte» was no longer allowed, and the wine is now sold as Château Floréal-Laguens. The estate itself (as opposed to the wine) continues to be called Château Lafitte - where the wine is bottled. Currently belonging to the Bonhur family, Château Floréal-Laguens continues to express the best of its outstanding terroir.


A very approachable right-bank Bordeaux of great value.


Beautiful garnet-red colour, with good balance and showing crunchiness on the palate. Nose of candied strawberry, vanilla, pepper, and minerals. Attractively fresh on the palate with fine equilibrium and a long aftertaste of red fruit compote, spice, and roasted flavours. A perfect wine with grilled meats, roast lamb, monkfish brochettes, and roast chicken.
