"The Lafite was still fairly deep, plummy coloured but maturing; bouquet evolving well; soft, fleshy, good length; complete - all that was needed was time, more bottle age. Its unreadiness for drinking was demonstarted at a Lafite dinner with Eric de Rothschild at Brooks's in London. The roast grey partridge was unable to compete. Nevertheless, the penetratingly lovely bouquet and flavour were appreciated. Strange though how a wine so beguiling and easy in its youth can close up. its second wind eagerly awaited.
