Description
Château Lafite 1945
Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé
u. 2 vts, 5 ts, 2 hs, 1 ms, labels 3 very slightly soiled, capsules slightly scuffed and worn, 1 slightly damaged, corks slightly sunken, purchased from Sotheby's Hong Kong, The Philanthropist's Cellar on 31 March 2018
It is worth remembering that 1945, 2000 and 2008 were the only years when the bottles were embossed with the vintage. In 2018, courtesy of a very generous friend, we saw again the inimitable scent and breed of this wine, all heathery perfume. There is a touch of volatility that sets in after a while, but the integrated, elegant, seamless side of Lafite caresses the palate, with silky sweetness and mouth-enveloping richness. Above all, it is all-conquering, signature Lafite, with myriad, smoky black fruit flavours that keep on making an appearance until the last drop. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
拉菲堡只有1945、2000和2008年的酒瓶上有相應的年份浮雕。2018年在一位朋友的慷慨相邀下品嚐,再次感受1945年份的獨特芳華,石南花香滿溢,不久後悄然散發一絲酸香,然而拉菲佳釀一如以往和諧優雅,渾若天成,輕撫味蕾,柔順甘美,醇厚濃稠,包覆齒頰。直至盡杯,煙燻黑肉水果味依然層層嶄露;教人折服的拉菲堡魅力,在此展露無遺。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師M.W.)
