Description
Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2016Pauillac
banded owc
Bottle (6)
A Distinguished Collection from a Prominent Wine Figure Assembled by a respected voice within the wine industry, this collection showcases the most iconic producers of France, Italy, and Spain. With a discerning focus on provenance, the collector has secured each bottle from only the most trusted sources: the Petrus was acquired directly from the château, while the remaining treasures were purchased through esteemed auction houses. Since acquisition, all wines have been maintained in professional, temperature- and humidity-controlled storage, ensuring their pristine condition.
"The 2016 Lafite Rothschild is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot, with 15% of the press wine contributing to the blend this year. Deep purple-black in color, it slowly reveals the most gorgeous perfume of kirsch, lilacs, black raspberries and warm blackcurrants with underlying nuances of cigar box, rose hip tea, cloves, licorice and pencil lead plus a waft of garrigue. Medium-bodied and built like a brick house with a firm yet beautifully ripe, finely pixelated tannic backbone and seamless freshness supporting the amazing intensity of black fruits and floral layers, it finishes very long and provocatively perfumed." (99 pts. Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate, Nov. 2018)
"The 2016 Lafite-Rothschild is a total stunner. Seamless, racy and voluptuous in the glass, the 2016 is even better from bottle than it was from barrel. Once again, I am blown away by the inner sweetness and purity of the fruit. The 2016 is, rich, concentrated and yet also light on its feet, in the way only Lafite can be. Dramatic and ample the 2016 Lafite is a beautifully resonant, super-expressive wine endowed with regal beauty and tremendous overall balance. It will drink well for many years and decades." (99 pts. Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec. 2018)
