LAFITE AND PETRUS FROM A GREAT VINTAGE
Lying in Weybridge, Surrey
Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1959
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Slightly corroded capsule. Bin-soiled and slightly damaged label. Level upper shoulder
Tasting note: One of the best ever Lafites... and keeping well. Most recently, a magnum: very deep, with dark cherry core; nose at first holding back, unreleased fragrance, touch of iron; sweet, glorious mouthfilling flavour, great length, spicy, with teeth-gripping tannins. For Lafite, mammoth. And superb. Last tasted Nov 2005 ***** And more to come
