Dramatic selection for the grand vin produced this quality. Glorious nose of real breed and reach. Really glossy, rich, ripe wine showing the brilliance of both terroir and winemaking. The wine of the vintage for me. At 6 years old, this had a really complex nose of Cabernet Sauvignon intensity - not surprising, as the percentage in the wine was 90.5%. The breed and length of Lafite come singing through, together with its signature silky texture. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
