Description

Château Lafite 1966

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé


4 bts - u. 2vts, 2ts, wine comes from 2 different importers, cellar soiled labels, corroded capsules 1 of which nicked, 1 bt - u. ts, cellar soiled label, corroded and slightly torn capsule

Last tasted from Imperial in 2009 and an absolute wow. The bouquet was all classic Pauillac spice and the taste was lovely, sweet and fat - the Imperial seemed to have given it flesh and glycerol. Masses of cassis fruit and very more-ish. Melted in the mouth. Easily my best ever Lafite 1966. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
