Description

Château Lafite 1955

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

In 2020, that ethereal, 'up in the sky', heather, camphor and cedar wood bouquet, with a sweet touch. Pure, inimitable Lafite, that sheer 'other world' characteristic. Such sweet, cherry flavours, with filigree laciness and an endless, lingering finish. The problem with Lafite is that it is a bit addictive! David Peppercorn drank the 1893 at the same stage of its life and he thought this was even better, with more vigour - there is absolutely no fading here. Serena Sutcliffe, MW


2020年品嚐,非凡脫俗的石南花、樟木和雪松木混香中伴隨一陣甜香。是無可取替的拉菲古堡純釀,擁有全然的「出塵」氣質。帶甜美的櫻桃味,口感精緻,如絲如縷,餘韻縈繞不散。拉菲美酒的問題,就是它令人難以自拔。葡萄酒大師David Peppercorn 曾經品嚐過與此酒陳熟年份相若的1893年拉菲,並覺得這款1955年更加出色、氣勢更加澎湃,完全沒有隨時間而湮滅。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師M.W.)
