More Information
Château Lafite-Rothschild 2004
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Ex-château. In original wooden case
Tasting note: This beautiful, stunningly dense purple-coloured effort (includes about 90% Cabernet Sauvignon) offers up precise notes of graphite, black cherries, cassis, scorched earth, and minerals. Medium to full-bodied with fabulous fruit, impressive richness, refreshing acidity, and sweet tannin, this beauty should be approachable in 4-5 years, and last for three decades. As Lafite Rothschilds go, this is somewhat of a sleeper vintage. Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate #171 Jun 2007
