| Tasting Notes | Robert Parker: Because Lafite-Rothschild (1) tends to lack theweight of many wines of the northern Medoc, and (2) is never aflashy, ostentatious style of wine, it is often more difficult toevaluate when young than some of its neighbors. A successful winefor Lafite, this dark ruby/purple-colored 1993 is tightly-wound,medium-bodied, with a closed set of aromatics that reluctantlyreveal hints of sweet blackcurrant fruit, weedy tobacco, and leadpencil scents. Polished and elegant, with Lafite's noble restraint,this is an excellent, classy, slightly austere wine. Anticipatedmaturity: 2004-2020. |
