Description

Carruades de Lafite 1996 

Pauillac

Excellent levels, labels slightly soiled, 1 capsule slightly nicked around collar; Excellents niveaux, étiquettes légèrement souillées, 1 capsule légèrement ébréchée autour du col

A wonderfully spicy, opulent, almost wild herbs nose. Blackberry and cassis then come through. So luscious and mouth-coating. Such ripe tannins. Melts in the mouth but the structure lurks below. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
