Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 2003
Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
Lot 78 in twelve and six-bottle original wooden cases
Tasting Note: A modern day version of the 1959 Lafite, the 2003 Lafite Rothschild was bottled in mid-May, 2005 after achieving 12.9 natural alcohol - hardly an astonishing figure given the vintage's weather conditions. A combination of 86 Cabernet Sauvignon, 9 Merlot, 3 Cabernet Franc, and 2 Petit Verdot, it represents a ripe version of the essence of Lafite-Rothschild. Dense purple-coloured, with classic notes of graphite intertwined with melted liquorice, crème de cassis, smoke, and flowers, it reveals extraordinary richness, opulence, power, purity, intensity, and viscosity. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 164 (April 2006)
