Château Lafite Rothschild
Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend
Tasted blind. Older tawny color, opaque. Fruit and cedar wood nose. Nice structure. Not a lot of fruit in the mouth and the structure was lacking, although it came on with more air. Nice overall and, more Lafite-like later in the evening as air gave it some additional complexity. Well made for the vintage. Guessed off vintage 80s Bordeaux.
