Interesting, always great to try the 'off' vintages, seem to show better balance than the richer vintages.

I was scared at first. Vintage isn't the best one, tough conditions, rain close to harvest date.
Then I popped it and suddenly That happened. Definitely, Lafite is another breed of wine. I must admit that this is a rather austere Lafite but fruit is there, topical Bordeaux nose, very "Old School". mint, pudding and confit fruit (not dry nor overripe, rather mature I must admit).
Give Bordeaux best properties some bottle age then you understand why all the buzz. Loved it!

Выпито в Al- Husn в ресторане 12.11.18. Великое вино из первой пятерки Бордо. Но пик зрелости уже прошёл. Благородно, достойно, спокойно.
