Chateau Lafitte 1L Blouge 2023 1000ml

Tasting Notes

This '1L Blouge' is the fun one. The name is blanc and rouge squished together, which tells you exactly what is going on here: a wine that sits somewhere between a white and a light red, bottled in the same one-litre format as the Blanc. It is made with native yeasts and a very gentle hands, light extraction, then aged in amphora, so it stays light, pure and full of energy. You get bright red fruit, a bit of floral and herbal lift, a saline edge and the finest, silkiest tannins. Juicy, easy to drink and best served with a good chill on it. This is the biodynamic, low-intervention side of Lafitte having a bit of fun, so don't overthink it, just pour it. - Pete L
