2009 Ch. Lafite Rothschild

This dry red wine has dark purple colour. On nose it has pronounced level aromas of blackcurrant, black plum, graphite, pencil shaving, sandalwood, licorice, cedar and spice. Medium acidity, alcohol and full bodied. Tannin level is quite high but ripe and fine grained. On palate it gives quite high intensity flavours of black plum, blackberry, licorice, pencil shaving, pine wood, cedar and touch of earth and smoke. Long length with black plum finish. (96)

 極深的顏色加漿果主導的味道，說明這酒的濃度很高。酒的香氣強烈，複雜性在發展中，令人期待。口感豐滿，單寧強但成熟，酒味亦強而有一定複雜，餘韻悠長。這些表現完全是好酒一枝，但仍須發展一下，潛質令人期待。這酒比想像中較啱飲，但陳多些時間可能會更好。
