Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2020
Amazing aromas here with tobacco, crushed stone, cigar box, currants, tar, and lead pencil, as well as spices, iron, and dried ginger. Medium- to full-bodied, with a density and tightness. Very compact and complex. Racy. Delicacy with strength. Orange peel undertones. A wine to contemplate. You must understand it to understand the great Lafites of the past and those of the future. Best after 2030, but drink it if you have the chance to taste it.
Blend: 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 1% Petit Verdot
100 Points - James Suckling
