Description
Château Lafite 1982
Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé
Levels into the neck, original tissues, recorked by the Château in 1994
65% Cabernet Sauvignon in this vintage. On Christmas Eve 2013, an incredibly rich, spicy, leathery nose, multi-layered and meaty. The taste balances fresh acidity with real maturity and it is just so "thick" and velvety. Enormous tannic structure with irony backbone. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
