From the hillsides that surround the Château to the Carruades plateau to the west and a plot in the neighboring town of Saint-Estèphe, Château Lafite Rothschild oversees a total of 112 ha of vines planted on soils of fine and deep gravel with sand in surface while the limestone subsoil provides excellent drainage.
