Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1945
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Levels: two upper/mid shoulder; one cut capsule resealed with wax, bin soiled labels, one torn
"25 notes since 1967, in bottles, magnums, and double-magnum. Surprisingly little bottle variation, remarkably cosisitent character and style. Not deep-coloured, but lovely, lively, intense, rich, with fine mature rim. Initially a low-keyed nose but it blossoms in the glass, churning out a fabulous, biscuity, spicy, slightly citrus-like penetrating fragrance. A distinct touch of sweetness on the palate, by no means a heavyweight, more of a middle-weight, elegant and stylish, svelt yet with some concentration, great length and dry finish. At its best, simply lovely." GVWB II
