Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2011

Volume: 750ml / ABV: 12.5%

The wine shows the power typical of a Lafite but within the context of the fruity 2011 vintage. The immensely dense tannic structure gives the wine a solid feel that is lifted by so much ripe black currant and berry fruits. At the back, the wine has a more brooding, dark character that suggests great aging potential. Drink this wine from 2019.” – 96/100, Wine Enthusiast
