Tasting Notes:
Wine Advocate All of the Lafite domains were successful in 1981. Quite backward in development, this deep ruby colored wine has an attractive bouquet that suggests crushed black currants, fresh leather, and new oak. Relatively big, quite tannic, concentrated, astringent, and dry in the finish, this backward, somewhat dull wine begs for time. (1/1998)
Wine Spectator Loads of cassis and tobacco aromas and flavors. Has a full body yet is still refined with fine integrated tannins and a long finish. (10/1994)
