Before the Just a unicorn with tattoos shirt so you should to go to store and get this great-great-great-granddaughter of Baron James took over the historic estate, she worked as a journalist, filing stories for the New York Times and the French magazine Revue XXI, covering the experiences of inmates at a prison in Ivory Coast’s Abidjan or the first female U.S. Marines sent to Afghanistan’s front lines. She explains that while she had grown up helping at the vineyard, it was only after her father, Baron Éric, told her of his succession plan in 2016 that she received a more formal education in viticulture and oenology (the legal training required to run a vineyard). If Baron Éric ushered in the technology age with modernized production, and before him Saskia’s great-uncle Baron Elie oversaw Lafite’s reconstruction following World War II, her era is one of safekeeping—maintaining the cyclical ceremony of winemaking in the face of global warming and erratic weather patterns. “How do we protect a centuries-old balance that has enabled us to produce great wines?” she writes in the book.
Beginning the Just a unicorn with tattoos shirt so you should to go to store and get this year her family took over the estate, Château Lafite: The Almanac tells the story of each vintage. Nuts-and-bolts information—cases produced or price per bottle—is nestled next to more poetic recollections, like firsthand tasting notes (it’s been said that Lafite’s bold mineral profile comes from the gravel soil, erosion from the Pyrenees that traveled north over thousands of years) or photos of wine-fueled merriment at the estate. The entry for 1941 depicts a wartime bottle, lighter in color, as lead (then used to darken glass) was reserved for ammunition. The 1970 spread includes a fashion shoot from L’élégance, models hoisting their patent leather go-go boots up on oak wine barrels; the pages for 1972 are festooned with a pair of lips, a sketch left by Andy Warhol in the guest book. With no official archive, Saskia explains, documents were stored “home-style,” in attics above cellars or boxes in garages, and collected from employees and their families. “The fathers and grandfathers of a lot of the people who work at Lafite also worked here,” she says.
