Lafite-Rothschild 2020

Pauillac, France

WineSaint

Graphite and dark fruit emerge with aristocratic poise, the nose revealing layers slowly. The palate shows crystalline precision. Cassis and blackberry framed by mineral backbone and silky tannins. More approachable than typical Lafite, with gorgeous energy lifting the finish. Built for the long haul. Drink 2030-2055.
