Château Lafite 1990 (5 MAG)

Château Lafite 1990

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Levels into the neck, 2 slightly scuffed labels

57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc. In 2017, from our own stock, absolutely superb, seducing everyone at the table. It is the sheer, glossy beauty that is unbeatable. Youthful and silky, it fills the mouth with flavour and discreet power. Landmark Lafite. And, in 2018, on a wonderful Glyndebourne evening (Lafite has always been a key supporter of this great opera festival), pure bliss, so immensely scented and heady. One can see why it is the leader of the pack! Serena Sutcliffe, MW
