Château Lafite Rothschild--Vintage 2003
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
"One of the vintage's most prodigious wines, the 2003 may be a modern day clone of the 1959 Lafite Rothschild. Unusually opulent and viscous, with a dense purple color and an amazingly complex nose of scorched earth, Asian soy, balsamic vinegar, black currants, plums, and even some figs, Lafite tips the scales at 12.75 alcohol (less than they expected). The final blend is 86 Cabernet Sauvignon, 9 Merlot, 3 Cabernet Franc, and 2 Petit Verdot. A wine of great intensity, tremendous viscosity and density with low acidity (the pH is pushing 4), and a magnificent finish, but all with great precision, purity and freshness, this is a tour de force is winemaking and something that simply has to be tasted to be believed. I have never had another Lafite Rothschild anything like it, and those who would argue that the 1982 or 1959 are cut from the same mold may have some supportive evidence. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2050+." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #158 (Apr 2005)
