2008 Château Lafite-Rothschild, 1er Cru Pauillac

2008 Château Lafite-Rothschild, 1er Cru Pauillac

Deep in the glass, showing restrained cedary cassis and graphite aromas.A very streamlined, elegant Lafite, that reveals a firm core of deep, ripe fruit framed in subtle oak.A vibrant, crisp style with marked minerality and rich yet bright curranty fruit.The finesse of the tannins lends an appealing silky texture, leading to a long, positive finish.A very refined Lafite that proves reminiscent of the 2004, given its focus and linear nature. Classically proportioned, with fine potential. 2018-2034 Robert Parker: 98-100
