Château Lafite Rothschild - Pauillac

Vintage: 2009
Description: "This is what the Medoc is all about. The freshness and delicacy of this wine in combination with its serious concentration and firm core are totally stunning. Time has already worked its magic and this is already delicious, but has decades in front of it. Drink or hold." - 100 points, James Suckling "This is stunning for its ability to take massively endowed fig, currant paste and crushed plum fruit flavors and harness them with ultrasuave freshly roasted espresso, black tea and ganache notes. A seductive style, long and velvety, with the dense core of black fruit and smoldering iron just waiting and waiting. Best from 2020 through 2040." - 98 points, Wine Spectator "It displays, as Lafite always does, more of a laid back elegance than Latour, and the difference between the two once again highlights the huge differences
