CHATEAU LAFITE 1999 |

Château Lafite 1999 Pauillac, 1er Cru ClasséExcellent levels and appearance, tissue wrappedDraconian selection produced this level of quality. Early on, there was an aromatic nose, not as ripe as 2000 and 200l, and a real coffee taste which was very winning. A recent bottle had a really interesting mocha and cassis nose, with a touch of cloves. Very lanolin texture. Not absolute ripeness, but a very good cherry flavour.
