    Description

    Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1949
    Pauillac
    Reconditioned at the Chateau in 1998
    Double-Magnum (1)

    The Cellar of Brotherly Love--The collection has lived in one location its entire life and has barely seen the light of day until now. Stored at the collectors deeply dug, ice-cold, temperature controlled wine cellar

    "Clear in color, the 1949 has a tuile core commensurate with its age. It delivers an ethereal, transparent bouquet with red cherry, meat juices, cedar and pine trees, all beautifully defined and with exquisite detail, if never a powerful set of aromatics. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannin, perfectly judged acidity, lighter in style than other 1949s but with a beguiling pretty, slightly savory finish with black truffle shaved over the aftertaste. This is a classic and quite understated Lafite-Rothschild that steps aside and allows Mouton-Rothschild and Latour to take all the accolades." (92 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, Jul. 2018)
