Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1945
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Level: very top shoulder; château embossed capsule, short lead capsule, 1945 vintage embossed shoulder, bin soiled label
"My most recent notes include a flawless magnum at the Eisengatz tasting in 1993 and an extraordinarily good magnum, despite its mid-shoulder level, at Christen Sveaas' great dinner in Oslo. The cork was sound so the air in the ullage must have been benign. The wine had a beautiful colour; medium deep, with rich legs but not intense, unlike the flanking Margaux and La Mission, the colors of which seemed to press the sides of the glass. Just about every note over the years refers to a glorious fragrance which seems to unravel itself after 15 to 20 minutes in the glass. Also noticed at the Sveaas dinner, and previously, its sweetness to which one adds, unoriginally, rich, soft with masked tannins. A glorious mouthful. Last noted April 1996 *****" MB, Vintage Wine
