Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Tasted at BI Wine & Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Lafite-Rothschild has an elegant cigar box bouquet, with dusky black fruit and a touch of antique bureau classic Lafite.
The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, cedar and tobacco infusing the black fruit, classic in style with a conservative yet focused finish that lingers in the mouth. This is certainly the most subtle First Growth, but one of the most refined and sophisticated but understated Lafite-Rothschild that will age with discrete style. Tasted February 2017.
Blend : 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc.
