Description

"Broodingly backward and in need of considerable bottle age,the 1988 is a classic expression of Lafite.This deeply colored wine exhibits the tell-tale Lafite bouquet of cedar,subtle herbs,dried pit fruits,minerals,and cassis.Extremely concentrated,with brilliantly focused flavors and huge tannins,this backward,yet impressively endowed Lafite-Rothschild may well turn out to be the wine of the vintage! Anticipated maturity: 2000-2035".
(94 Points).

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. October 1994).


"Beautiful and subtle on the nose,with mineral,berry,licorice and dark chocolate.Full-bodied with supersilky tannins and a pretty balance of fruit and mint.Long and caressing.Real claret here.Everyone talks about 1989,but this is very close in quality".
(94 Points).
