Château Lafite Rothschild 1995 is a First Growth Bordeaux from the Pauillac appellation. Crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot, this 1.5-litre bottle showcases the wine`s complex aroma of cedar, graphite and dark berries while revealing tightly woven tannins. Vintage conditions resulted in a firm structure with restraint rather than opulence. Château Lafite Rothschild reflects a commitment to quality over centuries, with its vineyards situated on the gravelly slopes of Pauillac.

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

Blaickish ruby with hardly any suggestion of ageing. That very refined lift of Lafite on the nose – oyster shells? Very elegant indeed – no dry tannins. Complete and with enough juice. A very fine Lafite. Lovely graphite finish – sinewy. No heaviness at all. And the tannins are SO well managed! (JR)
