Tasting Notes

The 1981 Chateau Lafite Rothschild from the renowned Pauillac region in Bordeaux, France is an exceptional wine that exudes elegance and complexity. Its deep ruby red colour is indicative of its age, with a slight garnet hue around the edges. On the nose, this wine offers a bouquet of blackcurrant, blackberry, and cedar aromas, with hints of tobacco and leather. On the palate, it displays a rich and velvety texture, with well-integrated tannins. The flavours of dark fruits, such as plum and cherry, are balanced by subtle hints of spice and a lingering oaky finish. This vintage has reached its peak, with the perfect balance of fruit and savoury notes, making it a true delight for the senses. Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1981 is a testament to the exceptional quality and expertise of this historic chateau.
