Description
As Lafite as Lafite gets, this ultra-classic reveals a dense ruby/plum hue as well as a
tight, yet layered bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, smoked tobacco, freshly sharpened
pencils, graphite, and subtle spice. Flawlessly balanced, deep, concentrated, and
layered, it has an incredible mid-palate, building, perfect tannins, and a finish that leaves
you salivating. Refined, elegant, and perfection are the buzzwords here. Unfortunately,
it's not for the instant gratification crowd, and I wouldn't be surprised to see this require
15 years to hit the early stages of its prime drinking window. It will probably hit its 100th
birthday in fine form.
