Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1995
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Lot 470 levels: into neck; two signs of old seepage, mixed importers
Lot 471 levels: into neck; one torn capsule, four signs of old seepage, one wine stained label, mixed importers
Lot 472 levels: into neck; one torn capsule, one signs of old seepage, one lightly bin soiled label, mixed importers
"Really impressive, the '95 Lafite showed a pronounced and forward fruit character of currants and plums overlaid with hints of saddle leather, smoke, and a mineral quality that give the wine great complexity. On the palate the wine shows the level of extract, firm tannic grip, and very good length that one would expect, but the remarkable aspect of this wine is the elegance and sophistication with which everything is held together. A triumph." At a Commanderie de Bordeaux dinner, CC, November 2009
