Château Lafite 1998 (12 BT)

Château Lafite 1998

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

Levels into the neck

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
