Lot 106 Details
CHÂTEAU LAFITE ROTHSCHILD 2001

Pauillac. 1er Cru Classé

The 2001 Lafite Rothschild’s deep, saturated plum/purple color is accompanied by lead pencil liqueur-like notes intermixed with sweet red and black currants, plums, and cedar. This blend of 86.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13.5% Merlot is a classic example of Lafite. Extremely elegant, medium-bodied, with intense concentration, richness, and sweet tannin, it appears to be on a rapid evolutionary track, at least in comparison to recent Lafite vintages that have been far more backward and powerful. June 2004 WA 94

1 bt.    per lot $900 - $1,100

Realised: $1,000
