Château Lafite Rothschild 1er GCC Pauillac 2009

Bordeaux, France, Red wine, wine cuvée
0.75 l

A legendary Lafite of consummate maturity and aristocratic calm. On the nose, blackcurrant, cedar wood, graphite, tobacco and truffle. Dense and silky on the palate, carried by vibrant energy; ripe tannins, fresh acidity and endless length. 100 points (Suckling). A masterpiece of clarity and depth, now in full bloom and set to last well beyond 2060+. The balance between fruit, acidity and texture remains exemplary, with a cool, precise and very long finish. A wine that sets the standard for elegance and finesse.

Château Lafite-Rothschild

There are supposed to be people who have no interest whatsoever in wine. And even they "of course" know the name "Lafite-Rothschild" and know that it is one of the most famous wineries of all. Some may also have picked up that a bottle from the estate of Thomas Jefferson fetched a price of 160,000 dollars at an auction in 1985.
