Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classe

Château Lafite Rothschild 1976

Vintage & Background
1976 was not one of the most consistent years in Bordeaux, but Lafite Rothschild delivered a standout example — many consider it one of the best Lafites of the 1970s. The growing season had its challenges, yet enough heat and ripeness were achieved to produce a wine that has aged remarkably well.

Appearance & Nose
In the glass the wine shows mature colouring: deep ruby with signs of brick at the rim, and a subtle amber/orange tinge beginning to show at the edges. On the nose expect classic mature Pauillac aromas — dried black fruits (blackcurrant, plum), cedarwood, cigar ash, graphite, hints of leather, mushroom, and tobacco. …
