Lot Details

Description

Château Lafite 1990

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Levels bn or into the neck, 1 slightly scuffed label, 4 slightly damp-stained labels, 4 torn labels

57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc. In 2021 and from magnum, a powerhouse of a Lafite aristocratic bouquet, oozing class and announcing from the outset its intention to last decades longer - it could make its century. Give it a chance and decant it 3 hours before drinking. The structure is enveloped in voluptuous fruit and richness, classically well-knit and establishing itself in virtual permanent fashion on the palate. This is a Rembrandt of a wine!
