12 Bottles of Chateau Lafite-Rothschild Pauillac, Bordeaux 2001 in Open Original Wooden Case - Case has suffered some water damage and labels inside have been damaged. Closures are all intact and fill levels are mid-neck.
1er grand cru classe.
Classy wine, with all the Lafite elegance and gentle complexity. Evolving nicely but now ready to drink. - Chris Burr M.W. The 2001 Lafite Rothschild’s deep, saturated plum/purple color is accompanied by lead pencil liqueur-like notes intermixed with sweet red and black currants, plums, and cedar. This blend of 86.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13.5% Merlot is a classic example of Lafite. Extremely elegant, medium-bodied, with intense concentration, richness, and sweet tannin, it appears to be on a rapid evolutionary track, at least in comparison to recent Lafite vintages that have been far more backward and powerful. The classy 2001 should be at its finest between 2007-2020. - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate - 94 points Sourced from an impeccable private cellar and in original wooden case.
