Château Lafite 1982 (2 BT)

Château Lafite 1982

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

u. 1ts, 1h/ms, labels very slightly soiled, 1 slightly marked and creased, 1 cork slightly depressed, 1 capsule slightly corroded at top; Etiquettes très légèrement salies, 1 légèrement marquée et froissée, 1 bouchon légèrement enfoncé, 1 capsule légèrement corrodée en haut

65% Cabernet Sauvignon in this vintage. On Christmas Eve 2013, an incredibly rich, spicy, leathery nose, multi-layered and meaty. The taste balances fresh acidity with real maturity and it is just so "thick" and velvety. Enormous tannic structure with irony backbone. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
