Community Tasting Note

89 Points
Saturday, September 2, 2017 - Very disappointing showing. There seems to be a lot of variability in different bottles of 82 Lafite. Tasted against the 82 Latour which was outstanding and has been a very consistent performer.

I have tasted 4 of the 6 bottles and the variability has been fairly significant. I have discussed with others and they report a similar variability.
