Chateau Lafite 2003 Chateau Lafite 2003 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classe Lots 3018-3020, 3027-3028: Banded prior to inspection 50% went into the 'grand vin' in this vintage. Great classy nose. Great coffee taste. Superb complexity. Sensational. Tremendously rich on the palate, with excellent length. At 6 years old, a wonderfully exotic, smoky nose. Warm coffee notes. Glorious texture and depth. Has the real 'heart' to it of a great vintage. I am hooked. SS. Lot 3018 12 bts (owc) Lot 3019 12 bts (owc) Lot 3020 12 bts (owc) Lot 3021 12 bts (owc) Lot 3022 12 bts (owc) Lot 3023 12 bts (owc) Lot 3024 12 bts (owc) Lot 3025 12 bts (cn) per lot: HKD 60000-90000 per lot: USD 8000-12000 Together with Ausone, Lafite's wines age in the most ethereal way, spanning the centuries with ease. Lafite in the 1990s and into this century has benefited from the extraordinary wine-making brilliance of Charles Chevallier who has added extra lustre to this fabulous terroir. When serving Lafite, decant it well in advance of drinking as its bouquet amplifies to multi-faceted dimensions on contact with the air. Lafite has great, sustained power under all the breed and scent - vinous nobility. It has a habit of starting slowly 'off the blocks' and then developing gloriously in bottle, as historic tastings have proven. SS. Quantity: 1
