CHATEAU LAFITE 1986 |

Château Lafite 1986 Pauillac, 1er Cru ClasséGood levels, 1 label very slightly nicked otherwise labels excellent, 2 corks slightly depressed, tissue wrapped69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Cabernet Franc, 15% Merlot. In 2017, the sheer aromatic splendour of both Lafite and this deep, rewarding year come roaring through. Layers and dimension à gogo. What always fascinates me is Lafite's family bouquet and taste transcending the vintage characteristics, even when they are as marked as in 1986. This really coats the palate and is endlessly satisfying.
