CHATEAU LAFITE 1975 |

Château Lafite 1975 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. 7bn, scuffed and stained labels, 2 torn labels, 2 previously cut capsules with tape, 1 loose labelThe vintage marked the start of Eric de Rothschild's regime at Lafite, with all the improvement that this brought. In 2009, this had an absolutely classic, top Pauillac nose, cedary and fruity. Then a lovely explosion of cassis berries on the palate. An excellent bottle, with a long finish and real consistency all through. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 927 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
