Château Lafite-Rothschild 1988
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case. Original tissues. Slightly corroded capsules. Levels: top-shoulder or better
Tasting note: Broodingly backward and in need of considerable bottle age, the 1988 is a classic expression of Lafite. This deeply-colored wine exhibits the tell-tale Lafite bouquet of cedar, subtle herbs, dried pit fruits, minerals, and cassis. Extremely concentrated, with brilliantly focused flavors and huge tannins, this backward, yet impressively endowed Lafite-Rothschild may well turn out to be the wine of the vintage! Anticipated maturity: 2000-2035. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate 95, October 1994
