Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1961Pauillac
bsl, vintage '61' illegible due to tear, cuc to reveal vintage on cork, rebouchage fait par maitre de chai du chateau en 1989
Double-Magnum (1)
"The bouquet is utterly refined, in some ways not as complex as more recent vintages, yet it has a sense of authority and purpose. Vestiges of faded dark fruit mix with scents of an antique mahogany bureau and tobacco. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, degraded tannin. Surprisingly youthful, it is undoubtedly beautifully balanced with perfectly judged acidity. It does not possess the aristocracy of the 1961 Latour, not the complexity, yet there is something 'princely' about this Lafite, blue blooded and yet old school. The glass was finished too quickly—an effortless class act." (93 pts. Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, July 2016)
