Besides Lafite, what other red wines are suitable for gifting?

"Have a bottle of 1982 Lafite", this is Chow Yun-fat's line in God of Gamblers. At that time, because of this classic line, Lafite's popularity in China quickly reached its peak. At the same time, this classic line , has also become a tool for people to show off in their daily lives.


In this way, Lafite gradually became a label of wealth. From then on, many people felt that wine with the word "Lafite" was very "high-end" when they saw it.


In Bordeaux, the one known as the "Wine King" is not Lafite, which ranks first among the five famous wineries, but the Petrvs Winery in the village of Pomerol on the right bank of Bordeaux, also known as Chateau Petrus.

Quite different from the majestic or exquisite castle buildings of Bordeaux Left Bank wineries, the main building of Patous Winery looks like a rustic, simple and clean "farmhouse", quietly guarding the vineyards.
However, it was in such a simple place that one of the eight famous Bordeaux chateaux was born, writing a legendary story of Bordeaux wine.
As the ultimate example of winemakers pursuing perfectionism, Patrus is meticulously crafted and spares no expense, with an annual output of only about 4,500 cases, less than 1/6 of Lafite. It is the favorite of royal families across Europe, and became a British winemaker in 1947. Special wine for Queen Elizabeth II's wedding reception.
Patous has always adhered to the traditional brewing method. The current owner Christian Muex once declared: "Most Bordeaux wineries today adopt automated production and control methods, and the production is very stable. I have no comment on this. The reason is simple, Pattus is like a hand-made Rolls-Royce.”


The severe cold in 1991 caused a serious reduction in grape production. Worried that it would affect the quality of the wine, Patus decided not to produce wine that year, which is evident in its pursuit of quality.
Compared with Lafite, which has been sold to sky-high prices by Chinese buyers in recent years, the price of Pattus is relatively stable, with an international average price of 30,000 yuan. It is a good choice for investment, collection and gift giving.
