Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1996
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
The wine exhibits a dark purple color, distinctive liquefied mineral, red and blackcurrant, and spicy oak aromas, medium body, fine concentration, superb delineation, and an intellectually challenging aspect to its personality. Neither a blockbuster such as Latour, nor as flamboyant as Mouton-Rothschild can be, Lafite is a stylish, elegant, harmonious wine that is somewhat more powerful and tannic than usual. Patience, a word frequently used with respect to the 1996 northern Medocs, is required!" Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Issue 110, 4/25/97
