Details
Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1996
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Both lots in original wooden cases
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
