The difference between big and small Lafite (bottle): Big Lafite: The authentic Lafite is only produced in the Rothschild Lafite Winery. The main label has the words chateau Lafite Rothschild, which is translated in Chinese as "Rosschild" "Chateau Childress Lafite", commonly known as "Big Lafite" or "Genuine Lafite". When the winery produces "Grand Lafite", in order to ensure quality, grapes are picked and selected manually from grapevines with an average age of 45 years. Petit Lafite: Grapes that do not meet the quality standards for the production of "Grand Lafite" and grapes from young grapevines are used to produce wine commonly known as "Petit Lafite" or "Second Lafite". The official name of the second brand Lafite is "Carraudes de Lafite-Rothschild", which translates as "Rothschild Lafite Treasures". To identify authentic and fake Lafite: 1. Bottle sealing iron: Lafite's bottle sealing iron is the easiest to identify. Above his design is the chateau chateau, with Lafite Rothschild written in the middle. The bottle sealing iron pieces in the picture are from the 1980s to 2002, and the designs are almost the same. The only difference is that the color of the iron pieces is slightly different, showing different red colors. If you look closely, you will find that these five arrows are slightly different from Mouton's five arrows. Above the R in the middle, the word Lafite is printed, representing the Lafite Rothschild family. 2. Wine stoppers: Showing the bottle stoppers of Lafite in different years, from left to right, 1983, 1985, 1986, 1994, 1995, 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2002 Lafite stoppers. The year is printed on the sides of the wine cork, but no pattern or year is printed on the top of the wine cork. On the other side of the wine cork, there is a Lafite pattern printed on it, with the words Grand Vin de Chateau LafiteRothschild's words. In fact, the designs of Lafite wine stoppers of different vintages are very similar. 3. Wine bottle: Before 1996, the wine bottle of Lafite was just like an ordinary bottle of Bordeaux wine, with no pattern under the bottleneck. However, in 1996, in order to prevent counterfeiting, the winery adopted a special wine bottle. As early as 1985, Lafite had a special pattern engraved on its bottle. The reason was to commemorate the astronomical phenomenon that Halle's comet only returns to unity every 76 years. So the words 1985 and the image of Halley's Comet were engraved on the bottle. Except for this special edition, Lafite has only used ordinary Bordeaux bottles. It was not until 1996 that the Rothschild family logo was engraved on the bottle, a pattern of five arrows, and the word Lafite engraved in the center. By 1999, wine bottles had new tricks. There was a special astronomical phenomenon that year, so the bottle was engraved with the words 1999 and the pattern of the sun and the moon. Because the sun and the moon were expressed in the colors of gold and silver, drinking friends jokingly called it "gold and silver." Lafite often designs new wine bottles based on the astronomical phenomena of the year, maybe because he particularly loves astronomy. The 2000 Lafite bottle is also a special edition. Because it is the millennium, in the middle of the five arrows, the words 2000 are engraved, replacing the previous words Lafite.

The logo of Chateau Lafite Rothschild is the logo of Chateau Lafite Rothschild. The logo of Petite Lafite is Carraudes de Lafite

Secondly, the wine label of Petite Lafite is larger, the label of Lafite is larger, and the mouth is sealed. The large paper Lafite is bright red, while the small Lafite is purple-red. This is roughly the difference in appearance
