Château Lafite 1945
Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé
u. ms, bin-soiled, damp-stained and slightly scuffed label, slight signs of old seepage, ex-Sotheby's with Aulden Cellars
It is worth remembering that 1945, 2000 and 2008 were the only years when the bottles were embossed with the vintage. In 2018, courtesy of a very generous friend, we saw again the inimitable scent and breed of this wine, all heathery perfume. There is a touch of volatility that sets in after a while, but the integrated, elegant, seamless side of Lafite caresses the palate, with silky sweetness and mouth-enveloping richness. Above all, it is all-conquering, signature Lafite, with myriad, smoky black fruit flavours that keep on making an appearance until the last drop. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
