Château Lafite 1990 (2 BT)

Château Lafite 1990

Pauillac, 1er Cru Classé

u. 2bn, labels 1 very slightly soiled and bin-marked, capsules slightly scuffed

Cabernet Sauvignon 57%, Merlot 30%, Cabernet Franc 13%. In 2022, violets, heather and cherries on the nose - lift off! Super luscious, super silky on the palate - this is mega opulence twinned with Lafite finesse, breed and then that hedonistic charge for the finish. As it develops in the glass, the black fruit intensifies. I 'got' the wine and the vintage on our 45th wedding anniversary - I must be improving! And, more important, the wine itself could make its century, in true Lafite fashion. To prove the point, in 2025 and from magnum, it is even fresher and gloriously sleek - breathtakingly beautiful. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

卡本納蘇維翁57%，梅樂30%，卡本納弗朗13%。2022年。葡萄酒一打開就有紫羅蘭、石南花和櫻桃的芳香撲鼻而來！酒體豐富絲滑--將拉菲古堡的細膩、獨特的葡萄品種和令人回味無窮的餘韻，裝進大酒瓶之中。葡萄酒在酒瓶之中繼續沉澱，令黑色莓果香味更為濃郁。我在我的結婚45週年享用過這瓶酒--相信我亦在不斷進步！更重要的是，這款酒堪稱是近百年來的經典之作，完全體現拉菲古堡的精髓，相信於2023年品嚐，口感更為清爽流麗，更能展現拉菲古堡的風格。施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
