Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 2003
Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
In original wooden case
Tasting Note: "A brilliant offering and a candidate for wine of the vintage, this is a classic Lafite that reminded me somewhat of the 1976, although the vintage conditions were completely different. This is a medium-weight, quintessentially elegant style of Lafite with notes of lead pencil shavings, graphite along with black currants, plums and crushed rocks/mineral. Wonderfully pure, dense, with a deep ruby/purple color and loads of fruit, definition, and a long finish, this is a brilliant, elegant Lafite Rothschild that builds incrementally in the mouth and has more power and density than it initially seems. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2025." RP, April 2005.
