Description

 

Château Lafite 1995  

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé 

Levels into the neck, 3 slightly nicked capsules, 9 original tissues 


Wonderfully voluptuous bouquet, stamped with First Growth class. Black cherries and glycerol invade the senses. Coffee beans and pure cassis on the palate. A thoroughbred, to use a racing term - and what could be more apt? In 2013, a very luscious nose and almost a Merlot opulence. A real taste of chocolate and spiced plums. This is all over you, with its very thick texture. Serena Sutcliffe, MW 

WA 95
