Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac 2000

$3,100.00
Excl. tax

Varieties: 93.3% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6.7% Merlot
Very dark color with hints of purple. The aromas are sumptuous and captivating, both powerful and extremely delicate on the palate, with remarkable tannic structure and length.

Critical Acclaim:

100 Points Robert Parker

“Well, well, well - Lafite Rothschild does it again.”

100 Points Wine Spectator

Subtle aromas of currants, leather, tobacco and cedar. Classic cigar box nose, with fruit. Full-bodied, with an amazing texture of silky, ripe tannins. This wine completely coats your palate, but caresses it at the same time. This is the best young Lafite ever made. A triumph. Best after 2012. 18,000 cases made.

99 Points Wine Enthusiast

Perhaps of all the first growths in the totally un-classic 2000, this retains most of the classic Bordeaux. It is certainly almost black in color, while the new wood flavors are very present. But it shows an impressive restraint, leaving the power of the wine to be revealed over the years rather than immediately. This could well be the longest-lived of the Pauillac first growths.
