Product Details
1996 Ch. Lafite-Rothschild, Pauillac
(code: 38028B)
"The 1996 Lafite-Rothschild is unquestionably this renowned estate's greatest
wine. The wine exhibits a thick-looking, ruby/purple color, and a knock-out
nose of lead pencil, minerals, flowers, and black currant scents. Extremely
powerful and full-bodied, with remarkable complexity for such a young wine,
this huge Lafite is oozing with extract and richness, yet has managed to
preserve its quintessentially elegant personality. This wine is even richer
than it was prior to bottling. It should unquestionably last for 40-50 years
."
