AA blend of 93.3% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot, the 2000 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac still has a dark ruby/purple color and an extraordinarily youthful nose of graphite, black currants, sweet, unsmoked cigar tobacco, and flowers. The wine is rich, medium to full-bodied, but has that ethereal elegance and purity that is always Lafite.
Subtle aromas of currants, leather, tobacco, and cedar. Classic cigar box nose, with fruit. Full-bodied, with an amazing texture of silky, ripe tannins. This wine completely coats your palate but caresses it at the same time. This is the best young Lafite ever made. A triumph. It has 50-60 years of life in front of it. Best after 2018. 18,000 cases made.
