Carruades de Lafite Rothschild 1999
Pauillac
Ex-château. In original wooden case
Tasting note: The 1999 Carruades de Lafite is made in the style of its bigger sibling. It reveals graphite, lead pencil, black currant, and cedary aromas, medium body, sweet glycerin, and a gorgeously expansive texture and palate. The wine is long and Lafite-like, and is unbelievably impressive. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2015. Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate #140 Apr 2002
