2014 Château Lafite Rothschild, Pauillac, Bordeaux

Description

Brilliant deep colour. Dense dark fruit aromas, cassis, incredible concentration. Amazing perfume. So often Lafite is impenetrable from cask. The palate is dense and concentrated but so beautifully balanced. Such fine boned structure, perfectly silky, the purest and most elegant wine of the vintage. The tannins are fine, powdery and beautifully integrated. A long, lifted finish. Oh so Lafite and everything it should be.

Pauillac

The aristocrat of the Médoc boasts 75 percent of the region’s First Growths, with Grand Cru Classés representing 84 percent of production. Pauillac's First Growths each have their own unique characteristics: Ch. Lafite Rothschild produces the region’s most aromatically-complex and subtly-flavoured wine, while – with its high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon – Ch. Mouton Rothschild can produce a decadently rich, fleshy and exotic wine.
