Château Lafite Rothschild

Pauillac (Premier Grand Cru Classé) 2008

  • Pauillac
  • France
  • 4.6/5.0

Bordeaux nobility with the most beautifully perfumed nose. Deep ruby-colored, this wine shows remarkable presence. The nose reveals layers of cassis, cedar, and subtle tobacco. The palate displays exceptional refinement with perfectly balanced dark fruits, graphite minerals, and ultra-fine tannins. The finish is extraordinarily long and focused, demonstrating classic Lafite restraint and elegance. [BBR 1st Growth Dinner Dec 24]
