An elegant bouquet of cigar box, blackcurrant and antique wood marks the start of this subtle Lafite. Medium-bodied, it brings fine tannins, fresh acidity, and a core of dusky black fruits intertwined with tobacco, cedar, and earthy minerality. Refined and restrained rather than opulent, this 2007 offers a polished, classic profile that will continue to evolve with discretion. A wine for lovers of subtlety, purity and quiet longevity.

Critic reviews

Wine Adcovate, 94/100

Neal Martin, 94/100

Tasted blind at the 2007 Bordeaux horizontal in Southwold. The Lafite-Rothschild 2007 pips the First Growths under blind conditions. Here it has a stern nose, good definition and more herbaceous than the others, but perhaps more clarity and dare I say, a sense of what you might call "honesty". The palate is well balanced with fine tannins, good acidity, touches of cooked meat and Chinese 5-spice (the irony!), although I wish it had a little more complexity towards the finish that seems. But it is very elegant and refined with a dark chocolate-tinged finish. Classy.

Wine Spectator , 91/100

This is a wine for aging. The tannins are dense, very dry with a feel of extraction. It takes a while for the black currant fruit to show through, with acidity and freshness dominant. The wine is still settling, and time will bring the fruit into line with the tannins. A big, juicy wine for the vintage, with spice, sweet tobacco and plum aromas and flavors. Full, long and rich, with a soft texture. A little tight, but should develop nicely in the bottle. Best after 2014. 20,085 cases made.
