Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Both in original wooden cases
Parcel: lots 613-614
"The 1995 Lafite-Rothschild (only one-third of the harvest made it into the final blend) is a blend of 75 Cabernet Sauvignon, 17 Merlot, and 8 Cabernet Franc. The wine was showing spectacularly well when I tasted it in November, 1997. It exhibits a dark ruby purple color, and a sweet, powdered mineral, smoky, weedy cassis-scented nose. Beautiful sweetness of fruit is present in this medium-bodied, tightly knit, but gloriously pure, well-delineated Lafite. The 1995 Lafite is not as powerful or as massive as the 1996, but it is beautifully made with outstanding credentials, in addition to remarkable promise. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2028." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #115 (Feb 1998)
