Wine Journal
Neal Martin 95-97 Drink - $964-$2535
Tasted on three occasions. "Top class" at the 1990 horizontal for Tommy's charity dinner. A second appearance at the Farr horizontal. A very fine fresh nose of cedar, graphite and tar. Superb definition though less involving aromatically than Mouton-Rothschild 1989. The palate is very harmonious, with well knit tannins. Wild strawberry (from the 33% merlot) tobacco and cedar. Unmistakably Pauillac. Overall, showing more sophistication and focus than Mouton - the balance is finer although Mouton has more power and perhaps longevity. Wait another 5 years. Then at the FWE Lafite vertical in December 2005. Slightly more opaque than the Lafite 1990. This is much mellower on the nose, minerally, graphite, cedar and some black pepper. The palate has less richness and alcohol than the 1990, superb balance and more clarity and balance. Very minerally, cedary and burnt toast. This shows lovely restraint. A lovely Lafite, one that begs to accompany some Pauillac lamb.
