Château Lafite 1959 (6 BT)

Château Lafite 1959

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

u. 2vts/ts, 3ts, 1t/hs, very slightly scuffed labels, capsules slightly scuffed, 3 slightly nicked on side, 3 slightly creased, 1 slightly corroded on top

This has always been, and remains, one of my favourite Clarets ever. In 2016, I was lucky enough to 'see' it again (i.e. to drink copiously) from a double magnum and it was knock-out gorgeous. Nobility, richness, velvety complexity - it has it all. Beauteous and mouth-coating, it has the aura of eternal life, helped by the large format which infinitely suits a wine of such immense body and opulence. The scent permeates the taste and, I realise, vice versa. Lafite nailed this vintage to a glorious level and experiencing it marks one for life. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

此酒一直是我最喜愛的波爾多紅酒之一。有幸於2016年再次暢飲三公升裝，感覺華麗非凡，教人迷醉傾倒。格調高貴，酒體豐腴，天鵝般厚滑而複雜。口感絕佳，齒頰留香，健碩豐沛，大瓶裝更讓它發揮得淋漓盡致，似乎可以永恆不變。香氣與味道交織。拉菲堡的輝煌傑作，能有幸品嚐，實屬畢生難忘的體驗。施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
