Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1961 Pauillac, 1er cru classé Badly corroded capsules, one with slight signs of seepage. Two slightly damaged labels and one with badly damaged remains only. Levels: two mid/low and one low-shoulder Tasting note: a magnum: medium depth, fully mature; sweet, rich, lovely bouquet; much sweeter on the palate from start to finish. Delicious flavour. Perfect balance. Last tasted November 2005 ***** M.B.
