Château Lafite 1975

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

u. 1bn, 1hs, labels soiled, of which 1 is nicked at top left corner, and 1 is wine stained at bottom; Etiquettes sales dont une est entaillée dans le coin gauche en haut et 1 est tâchée par le vin en bas

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
