A candidate for the wine of the vintage the 2007 Lafite Rothschild (84% Cabernet Sauvignon 15% Merlot and 1% Petit Verdot) reveals classic Lafite aromas of graphite unsmoked cigar tobacco black currants cherries and a hint of truffles. The complex aromatics are followed by a round medium to full-bodied wine with silky tannins an overall subtle smoky component and a rich round generous plump finish. Already evolved and delicious it should continue to drink well for two decades.

Tasted at Bi Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Lafite-Rothschild has an elegant cigar box bouquet, with dusky black fruit and a touch of antique bureau—just classic Lafite. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, cedar and tobacco infusing the black fruit, classic in style with a conservative yet focused finish that lingers in the mouth. This is certainly the most subtle First Growth, but one of the most refined too—a sophisticated but understated Lafite-Rothschild that will age with discrete style.

(84% cabernet sauvignon 15% merlot and 1% petit verdot) Good bright ruby. Cassis minerals licorice and mint lifted by spices on the nose. Moderately dense and fruit-driven with lovely mouthcoating breadth to the dark berry spice and fresh herb flavors remains just this side of peppery. Best today on the subtle but very persistent finish which features very fine-grained tannins a restrained sweetness and a captivating vibrancy. Among the most suave and refined examples of the vintage. Ws 91 Wine Spectator, March 2010 A big juicy wine for the vintage with spice sweet tobacco and plum aromas and flavors. Full long and rich with a soft texture. A little tight but should develop nicely in the bottle. Best after 2014. Jjb 93 Jj Buckley, April 2008 84% Cabernet sauvignon 15% Merlot 1% Petite Verdot. Opaque purple core with full intensity. Complex pungent and perfumed wine with a spicy bramble nose of blackberries and cassis with savory olive tapenade. Full-bodied. 84% Cabernet sauvignon 15% Merlot 1% Petite Verdot. Opaque purple core with full intensity. Complex pungent and perfumed wine with a spicy bramble nose of blackberries and cassis with savory olive tapenade. Full-bodied with mouthcoating tannins completely wrap around the medium perfumed red fruits. The wine has medium to high acid with red and black berry fruit with some bramble spice. A focused wine with purity of fruit and mineral perfume of crushed pavement and river bed gravels. |
