Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1959
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Levels: one very top and one top shoulder; bin soiled labels
One of the stars of a recent blind tasting of 1959 and 1961 First Growths. Deep prune garnet color, intense nose of cassis, though still elegant. The first taste is of mint, followed by increasingly rich but dry fruit with a viscous texture, slightly citric, highly aromatic, complex, and with a dollop of mint-chocolate coating the fruit. FH
