Product information

I was not at all taken with Lafite Rothschild in 1986, a tough, brittle lump at 84/100 level. In a 1997 tasting, it presented itself much more open with a Corinthian sweetness, the nose clearly better and more beautiful than the compact palate - 91/100. In 2007 on the Braui Best Bottle, a classic Lafite in the perfect, old style corresponding to the terroir. A fine, elegant wine with red berry fruit, pure finesse on the palate with a wonderful melting texture - 94/100. Shortly afterwards on Sylt, a classic Lafite with the infinite elegance and finesse with which this estate has fascinated wine lovers worldwide for two centuries, very savoury, slightly peppery fruit, wonderful length on the palate. Anyone still looking for an affordable Lafite in the old style, not the modern, concentrated, overpriced Latour imitations, should go in search of this wine - 95/100.
