CHATEAU LAFITE 1982 |

Château Lafite 1982 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. 4vts, 3ts, wine comes from 2 different importers, slightly scuffed and cellar soiled labels, scuffed and corroded capsules65% Cabernet Sauvignon in this vintage. On Christmas Eve 2013, an incredibly rich, spicy, leathery nose, multi-layered and meaty. The taste balances fresh acidity with real maturity and it is just so 'thick' and velvety. Enormous tannic structure with irony backbone. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 97+7 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
