Description

Château Lafite 1996

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Excellent levels and appearance; Excellents niveaux et apparence

At a 2009 dinner in Hong Kong, a glorious spicy nose, like the smell of Christmas pudding cooking! Huge black cherries and liquorice taste. Perfect composition, bursting with fruit and health. Big impact wine. In 2012, as deeply concentrated as ever, just flexing its muscles. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
