Château Lafite Rothschild 1983

Pauillac - Premier Grand Cru Rated

 

93/100 Parker

  • Maturity: 1997 - 2030
  • By Robert Parker in 1998: "Finally, the 1983 Lafite is beginning to lose its tannin. The wine has a deep ruby/garnet colour with only a slight lightening at the edge. The nose with its heady perfume of lead pencil, toast, red and black fruits, minerals and toasted herbs is provocative. On the palate, this wine has considerable body for a Lafite, a lot of power, and a fleshy, rich and soft mid-palate. Long, elegant, plump and surprisingly fleshy. Drink now until 2030." 

 

 TERROIR

The vineyard comprises three main areas: the slopes around the Château, the plateau of Carruades adjoining to the west and a 4.5 ha plot in the neighbouring commune of Saint-Estèphe. The surface area is 112 ha, and is made up of fine, deep gravel, mixed with aeolian sands on a tertiary limestone subsoil, well drained and well exposed.

SERVICE 

Château Lafite Rothschild should be decanted for 2 hours or more. It is best served between 16 and 18°C. This will allow the wine to soften and open up its flavour. For wines that have not been aged in barrels, decanting is not necessary. Aeration in a carafe is recommended when the wine is young and has been aged in oak barrels.

 FOOD AND WINE PAIRING

Château Lafite Rothschild can be served with aperitifs, starters, main courses or cheeses.

I love this site. Whether it's for old wines, or recent ones. The choice of partner estates is impressive, and allocations are sold at fair prices. Ludovic's advice is always excellent.
