Château Lafite 1983 (6 BT)

Château Lafite 1983

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

U. 2bn, 1vts, 1ts, 1hs, otherwise into the neck; scuffed capsules, 1 nicked and 1 corroded; 1 bottle shows signs of old seepage

60% Cabernet Sauvignon in this vintage. In 2018, I think this has got better over the last decade, showing a purer Lafite nose with its signature breed and cedary notes. The texture has Lafite finesse and the flavour has filled out, filling the mouth with that cèpes and smoke allure. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
