PRISTINE YOUNG CLARETS INCLUDING FIRST GROWTHS FROM 1995, 1996, AND 2000 VINTAGES
One of the greatest modern vintages, here on offer are pristine cases of First Growths from the 2000 all in OWC and Opus One in quantity, all stored in temperature-controlled conditions.
Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1995
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case
"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." CC, at a Commanderie de Bordeaux dinner, November 2009
