1990 Château Lafite Rothschild
Community Tasting Note
aquacongas Likes this wine:
95 Points
Wednesday, December 16, 2015 - Achim's Magnum Tasting 2015 (Behrens am Kai in Düsseldorf 1 star restaurant): Gun powder, a lot of cassis, licorice and pencil tip, very young, well integrated barrique but showing a rough acidity, firm tannins present, long finish crying for more aging, typical lafite in my opinion
