Lafite-Rothschild Carruades de Lafite 2012

Pauillac, France
7.0
WineSaint
Cedar, graphite and dried herbs frame red currant and cherry notes. The texture shows Lafite's signature refinement. Polished and graceful rather than muscular. Shows classic Left Bank character but falls short on intensity and length. The terroir speaks clearly, yet the voice feels muted.
