Perhaps these wines are at a tough stage

I said it there

One of the more intellectually-styled Moutons

all wrapped in a firm

mouthfeel and power combined with elegance

Lafite - 1998 (6L) Joel 5 Perhaps these wines are atA blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon and 19% Merlot, the 1998 Lafite Rothschild is deep garnet with a hint of brick and gorgeous notions of sandalwood, crme de cassis, smoked meats, black pepper and garrigue with touches of chargrill, dried herbs and mincemeat pie. Medium bodied, soft and plush on the palate, it has tons of mouth filling savory and plum preserves flavors and a very long, savory finish. Delicious now, it should keep for 15 20 more years
