Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1959
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Level: top shoulder; slightly stained label
"One of the best ever Lafites, quite different from the more delicately fragrant '53s and keeping well...The extraordinary ability to exude not only an immediate cedary perfume but, very much a Lafite specialty, the way it opens up further avenues of fragrance and subtle by-paths, lingering in the mouth. Each time you pick up the glass you notice another facet of scent and taste. It also happens to be a good drink, still a perfect beverage. Last tasted Dec 2000 *****" MB, Vintage Wine
