Château Lafite-Rothschild 1990 is very highly rated by none other than Robert Parker who awarded this Premier Grand Cru Classé from Pauillac 96 points when reviewing it in 2009. At that time he thought that there was still much more to come from this wine, a bottle from his cellar needing 2 days to open up fully, and wrote that it would be about another 8 years before it really started to display its undoubted prowess and that he expected it to remain drinking for another 25 to 30 years after that.

Parker wrote:
"...it boasts gorgeous aromas of cedar, tobacco leaf, cassis, and lead pencil shavings. The explosive aromas are followed by a fleshy, full-bodied wine...".


We recommend this to the connoisseur of red Bordeaux wines who will cherish it and only drink it when the time is particularly auspicious and which we envisage will be a few years in the future yet.
