Lot Details

Description

Château Lafite 1975

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

u. vts, heavily damp-stained and bin-soiled label, wine-stained label, signs of old seepage

The vintage marked the start of Eric de Rothschild's regime at Lafite, with all the improvement that this brought. In 2009, this had an absolutely classic, top Pauillac nose, cedary and fruity. Then a lovely explosion of cassis berries on the palate. An excellent bottle, with a long finish and real consistency all through. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
