Château Lafite Rothschild 1983
6 magnums per lot
LAFITE IN MAGNUM Lying in Weybridge, Surrey (EHD) Château Lafite Rothschild 1983 Pauillac, 1er cru classé Not in original wooden case. Bin-soiled labels. Levels into neck Tasting note: Finally, the 1983 Lafite is beginning to shed its tannin. The wine exhibits a deep ruby/garnet colour with only a slight lightening at the edge. The intoxicatingly perfumed nose of lead pencil, pain grille, red and black fruits, minerals, and roasted herbs is provocative. In the mouth, this wine displays considerable body for a Lafite, plenty of power, and a fleshy, rich, sweet mid-palate. Long, elegant, plump, and surprisingly fleshy, this outstanding example of Lafite seems largely forgotten given the number of high quality vintages during the golden decade of the eighties. Anticipated maturity: Now-2030. Robert Parker Bordeaux Book 3rd Edition, Jan 1998. 6 magnums per lot
