A WINE OF BIBLICAL PROPORTION?
YOU DECIDE.
A
n outstanding year in Bordeaux,
2000 Lafite
is very intensely
dark colored with hues of purple to pique your intrigue. The
aromas are sumptuous and captivating while the wine is powerful
and extremely delicate on the palate, with remarkable tannic
structure and length. And while flavors and weight of new wood
may be present, it’s only in a most pleasing and well-integrated
manner since this gem of a bottle still shows impressive restraint.
Actually, you have six sparkling 100-point Parker gems in this
lot!
Each glass drinks beautifully right now, and yet, its true nature
may not be revealed for years to come. Who knows? Well, YOU, if
you’re lucky enough to take this lot home with you tonight!
