CHATEAU LAFITE 1949 |

Château Lafite 1949 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. ms, stained and nicked label, nicked capsule, slightly raised corkGlorious 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. Serena Sutcliffe, MW1 bt (cn)Estimates are per lot
