Description
Château Lafite 1949
Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé
u. 1ts, 1t/hs, 1hs, stained and soiled labels, 2 nicked, 1 torn, damaged, and partially missing label, nicked and corroded capsule, excellent color and clarity
Glorious bouquet - the enchantment and distinctive quality of Lafite in this wondrous year is still stunning at 55 years old. It never seems big but has enormous concentration and flavour. This, for me, has always been one of the great Lafites. My most recent bottle had a lovely, heart-of-Claret, candied nose. Dreamy, ethereal, lacy Lafite. To die for. Raspberry finish.
