Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1982
12 bottles per lot
Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1982 Pauillac, 1er cru classé Excellent appearance. Levels base of neck or better. In "HKDNP" import stamped original wooden cases "Not a shrinking violet nor with the finesse and charm of the '53, but a hugely impressive wine. Roughly two dozen well spread and consistently good notes from the mid-1980s. By its 10th birthday, though still deep and intense, the inimitable bouquet was developing beautifully, spicy and powerful. In the second half of the 1990s decade, its fragrance, harmony and length a major feature. By 2001, mouthfilling, so much on show, so much more to come. Most recently, double decanted and served 5 hours later: still deep and velvety, with a virtually opaque core; the bouquet already aroused and holding its fragrance; medium-sweet, delicious flavour and persistence. Tamed tannins. Last noted Dec 2004 ****(*)" M.B. 12 bottles per lot
