Lafite Basque red wine is brewed in traditional big oak barrels.

after the fermentation, the liquor used will be transferred to new oak barrels for aging. In order to ensure the quality, all the oak barrels are from Lafite's own barrel factory. During the aging process, the winemaker will taste the wine in each oak barrel and eliminate the wine that does not meet the requirements. In March of the following year, the winery will decant the wine for the first time (to separate the wine from the sediment), and then mix it.

Lafite is a typical Bordeaux mixed wine, and the wine brewed by different grape varieties will be blended according to a certain proportion. After that, it will be aged for 18-24 months to let the wine continue to mature. Four kinds of grapes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmine, Shiraz and malbec, are used in the brewing process of the wine collected in Lafite Basque Garden. The combination of these high-quality grapes endows the wine collected in Lafite Basque Garden with the characteristics of soft taste, full body and rich fruit aroma.

specific process

before bottling, the winemaker will add egg white to the wine to allow the particles to precipitate to stabilize the wine. After that, the professional equipment in Lafite Winery will bottle the red wine. The annual output of Lafite Winery is about 4, cases, and one-third of the cocktail parties can only be sold under the trademark of Little Lafite because the quality is not up to expectations. Only after passing the screening of brewing, the part with high quality will be labeled as Chteau Lafite Rothschild.

In order to ensure the authenticity of wine, since February 212, all the bottle caps of Lafite Castle and Little Lafite have been affixed with certification seals. The seal seal consists of a set of "bubble codes", which are unique and cannot be copied. Each set of bubble codes is connected with a set of alphanumeric codes.
