Lafite Rothschild 1995 is a mature First Growth Bordeaux red wine from Pauillac, presented in imperial format. Following an unremarkable 1994, the 1995 vintage was a return to form for the Médoc, producing wines with immense structural power and longevity. This First Growth is defined by its high proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon which in 1995 yielded a profile of cassis, graphite, cedar and lead pencil shavings. It possesses a laser-like focus and a persistent, mineral-driven finish that suggests decades of further potential.
93 Vinous
Dark ruby-red. Sappy, expressive aromas of cherry, plum, minerals, woodsmoke and game, plus an exotic suggestion of baked apple. Rather subtle on the attack, then quickly expands to fill the mouth. A big, deep, very rich vintage for Lafite, unusually generous at this early stage and extremely long on the aftertaste. But went into a shell with aeration, and showed a hint of tobacco leaf vegetility. Finishing notes of coconut, woodsmoke and tobacco add flavor interest.Stephen Tanzer1st May 1998
