Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1998
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Offered in a carton
Tasting note: ...This opaque purple-colored 1998 is close to perfection. The spectacular nose of lead pencil, smoky, mineral, and black currant fruit soars majestically from the glass. The wine is elegant yet profoundly rich, revealing the essence of Lafite's character. The tannin is sweet, and the wine is spectacularly layered yet never heavy. The finish is sweet, super-rich, yet impeccably balanced and long (50+ seconds). Anticipated maturity: 2007-2035. 98 points. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 134 (Apr 2001)
