Excerpt from Clarets and Sauternes: Classed Growth of the Medoc and Other Famous Red and White Wines of the Gironde To the Claret drinker in England, or indeed the con noisseur of Bordeaux Wines anywhere, the name of Chateau Lahte, one of the four Premiers Grands Crus de Medoc, has much in it that is attractive. No Claret Wine list with any pretension to adequacy seems complete without it, and whilst, perhaps, Chateau Lafite has not quite the same significance, or is not the same index of value, to the Englishman as to the Frenchman, there can be no question of the undisputed popularity of this great Wine the whole world over.
