Description

Château Lafite 2008

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Excellent level and appearance, embossed metal capsule, tissue wrapped, banded until inspection


In 2012, that inimitable Lafite violets scent, intense and lingering. A great "meaty" character at the moment, with beautiful fresh acidity. It has a touch of oak too. A keeper. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
