The red wine Château Lafite-Rothschild, vintage 1981 from the winery Château Lafite-Rothschild has been rated in 2009 with 90 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon from the region Pauillac in France.
Light carmine garnet with fine ruby reflections, broad watery rim. Sweet and well-ripened wild berry fruit on the nose, underlaid with milk caramel, hints of orange zest, Malaga raisins, some plum confit. Highly elegant on the palate, freshly structured, a light-footed, graceful Lafite, perfectly matured, with a cedary, herbal-spicy finish, perhaps just about to pass its peak. ! To drink
