Château Lafite Rothschild 1996 - 100 Points Robert Parker
RETAIL - IMMEDIATE DELIVERY
Appellation - Pauillac
The 1996 Lafite Rothschild was spectacularly powerful and rich, somewhat atypically intense and concentrated for Lafite. It is a gorgeous expression of primarily Cabernet Sauvignon from this great terroir. Remarkably, only 38% of the production made it into the 1996 Lafite, and it is a wine for the ages. Still an infant, it is capable of lasting another 50 or more years. 100 points.
100/100
