The red wine Château Lafite-Rothschild, vintage 1997 from the winery Château Lafite-Rothschild has been rated in 2009 with 93 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon from the region Pauillac in France.
Medium ruby garnet, violet reflections, delicate ochre reflections, broad rim brightening. The nose is characterized by a high Cabernet content, cassis, ripe black berries, plums, some nougat and exotic woods. Full-bodied, round and - one might almost say - opulent on the palate, fine spicy notes, perhaps lacks the depth of a great vintage, but is an eminently gastronomic wine that gives great pleasure, fine red berry nuances on the finish, undoubtedly one of the best of its vintage and still has a few years ahead of it. !
