Description

Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1983
Pauillac
4bn, 3ts, owc
Bottle (12)

Property of a New England gentleman. All wines sourced carefully as part of an investment portfolio and stored in his temperature and humidity-controlled cellar.

"The 1983 Lafite-Rothschild is one of my favorite vintages of the decade, and this bottle, served blind, replicates its showing at their 150th anniversary vertical. However, at first, it feels a little disjointed on the nose, but it coheres in the glass, offering lovely blackberry fruit, hints of pain d'épices, black truffle and meat juices. The palate is beautifully balanced with fine-boned tannins, tobacco and morels. There's a bit more white pepper on the finish of this bottle, though persistent as ever. What a wonderful Lafite-Rothschild that, at 40 years, continues to go strong." (94 pts. Neal Martin, Vinous, April 2023)
