MATURE RARETIES AND HENRI JAYER ECHEZEAUX
Removed from a temperature-controlled home cellar in the UK
Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1934
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Level: very top shoulder, remains of labels, vintage not legible
Three part moulded bottle ID from cellar records
"Variable. In the 1950s and 1960s I noted a hardness though even then a touch of age. Curiously, better notes in the 1970s. Very mature looking, the bouquet variously described as rich, fragrant, complex; attractive flavour, charming. Two poor bottles in the 1980s, but a superb magnum at Lloyd Flatt's tasting. Very sweet, richly flavoured, in excellent condition but constant over-maturity noted." Last tasted Oct 1988. At best **** MB, Vintage Wine
