Description
1989 Lafite – Wine Spectator – Web Only – 2010: Subtle, yet rich and decadent, offering meat, sweet berry and fresh leather on the nose. Full and very soft, with velvety tannins and a long, fruity finish. This has so much ripe fruit. Reserved and firm, this is turning to a very fine and shy Lafite. This is fresh and structured, but still holding back. I wouldn’t wait, though.—’89/’99 Bordeaux blind retrospective (2009). Drink now. –JS
