Quite simply one of the most famous and iconic wines in the world: Esteemed wine critic Neal Martin describes Château Lafite Rothschild as the “quintessential wine of elegance” and it’s widely regarded as the most consistent performer of the First Growths and maybe even the pinnacle of Claret.
After a muted reception at En Primeur the critics have been surprised and incredibly impressed with the quality of the 2014 Bordeaux vintage from bottle demonstrated by many upscores. Expert Antonio Galloni said that “the finest 2014s are utterly magnificent and well worth seeking out.” Lafite Rothschild 2014 is undoubtedly one of those “utterly magnificent” wines…
Neal Martin has “high expectations for this First Growth” as does Antonio Galloni who said “it clearly also has the potential to grow in bottle.” It has certainly put on weight but the higher than normal proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon means that this wine is tightly wound up and full of latent power. It will take time to reach its full potential making this an incredible gift for any wine connoisseur.
Displaying an unusual opulence in its aromatics this wine is packed with cassis herbs from the roasting tray new leather tobacco black hedgerow fruit dried fig stewed plum and graphite. It will take time to live up to all that tightly-wound potential but will handsomely reward those with patience.
