Château Laffitte Carcasset
The history of Château Laffitte Carcasset originated in the kingdom of France in the early 18th century. Already present on Cassini's maps, the vineyard was established in 1759 at Le Carcasset, in the heart of the Saint-Estèphe appellation. In 1781, its owner, Jean Laffitte, court lawyer and prosecutor to King Louis XVI in Bordeaux, gave his name to the Château. 

Château Laffitte Carcasset 's chartreuse, built of Bordeaux ashlar, is in the tradition of the grand residences of its era, with reception rooms opening onto the vineyard and its magnificent park of century-old trees. Surrounded by the appellation's Grands Crus Classés, the 35 hectares of vines are nestled on the gravelly plateau of Saint-Estèphe, where Cabernet and Merlot best express their potential. A Cru Bourgeois since 1932, Château Laffitte Carcasset has been a family estate since its origins. Since 2016, it has been owned by Pierre Rousseau and his family.

"Racy, powerful, a great price, it has it all! ~ Le Figaro "

"Lafitte-Carcasset 2019 is impressive, just as it was in barrel. Full-bodied and texturally intense, the 2019 packs a lot of punch. Aromas of black fruit, spice, leather, tobacco, gravel, menthol and licorice develop effortlessly in the glass. All the elements are so well balanced. The 2019 is a great beauty."

"Elegant, complex bouquet with filigree fruity notes and hints of blackcurrant, blueberry and spice. Racy, compact character on the palate. The wine is full-bodied,balanced and fresh. It owes this to its acid structure, which also supports the taste expression right through to the finish. A wine of character, which deserves a little ageing". (Yves Beck 2020)
