Description

Château Lafite 1959 

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé


Soiled label, slightly worn and nicked capsule, very good level and colour 


This has always been, and remains, one of my favourite Clarets ever. In 2016, I was lucky enough to ‘see’ it again (i.e. to drink copiously) from a double magnum and it was knock-out gorgeous. Nobility, richness, velvety complexity - it has it all. Beauteous and mouth-coating, it has the aura of eternal life, helped by the large format which infinitely suits a wine of such immense body and opulence. The scent permeates the taste and, I realise, vice versa. Lafite nailed this vintage to a glorious level and experiencing it marks one for life. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

此酒一直是我最喜愛的波爾多紅酒之一。有幸於2016年再次暢飲三公升裝,感覺華麗非凡,教人迷醉傾倒。格調高貴,酒體豐腴,天鵝般厚滑而複雜。口感絕佳,齒頰留香,健碩豐沛,大瓶裝更讓它發揮得淋漓盡致,似乎可以永恆不變。香氣與味道交織。拉菲堡的輝煌傑作,能有幸品嚐,實屬畢生難忘的體驗。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師M.W.)
