Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1989
Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
In original wooden case
Tasting note: Despite a warm rich mature colour with a tinge of orange at the rim, the wine had an extraordinary attack, a very rich 'entry', nice weight, good fruit, plenty of tannin and acidity. Very good but unready. Forget it for another 10 years: say 2010-2030, or beyond. M.B. (May 2001)
