Château Lafite Rothschild--Vintage 1959
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Bottles from two different origins. Five slightly corroded capsules. Three badly bin-soiled, one damaged, four slightly damaged and nine bin-soiled labels. Levels: three into neck, eight top and one upper-shoulder. In carton
Tasting Note: One of the best-ever Lafites, quite different from the more delicately fragrant '53s, and keeping well. Most recently, a magnum: very deep, with dark cherry core; nose at first holding back, unreleased fragrance, touch of iron; sweet, glorious mouthfilling flavour, great length, spicy, with teeth-gripping tannins. For Lafite, mammoth. And superb. Last tasted July 2006 ***** And more to come. M.B.
