Description

Château Lafite 1998

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Previously purchased from "Finest and Rarest Wines" at Sotheby's Hong Kong on 30 September 2018

My top Left Bank wine of the vintage. Spicy breed all the way through, with a touch of raspberries. Really tempting black fruit too and a lovely juicy finish. From Imperial in 2010, this was just so young and concentrated. In bottle, it is aristocratic and oozing allure. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 98


出類拔萃的佳釀,也是該年份我最鍾情的左岸出品。每一口都流露辛香,並有絲絲紅莓的風味。極度誘惑的黑肉水果味,還有一股可人的水果餘韻。於2010年品嚐六公升裝,此酒十分年輕及濃郁,充滿貴氣,令人迷醉。品嚐標準裝,感覺典雅迷人。施慧娜 (葡萄酒大師M.W.)
