The wine has great finesse and a particular softness imparted by the Merlot. It tends to be firm yet delicate and supple, great elegance develops with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98 Points - James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWhat a red with incredible depth and finesse. Cedar, cigar box and toabaaco character with currants and fresh tobacco undertones. It's full-bodied yet tight and dense. Precision. So refined and intense. Such freshness and beauty. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 Points - Wine Spectator\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIntense aromas of blackberries, black licorice and currants, with mineral undertones. Full-bodied, with a solid core of tannins and a long, silky finish. Still holding back, but is concentrated and powerful. The 1996 is always talked about, but I think this is superior and will be in the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1995 Lafite-Rothschild (only one-third of the harvest made it into the final blend) is a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, and 8% Cabernet Franc. The wine was showing spectacularly well when I tasted it in November, 1997. It exhibits a dark ruby purple color, and a sweet, powdered mineral, smoky, weedy cassis-scented nose. Beautiful sweetness of fruit is present in this medium-bodied, tightly-knit, but gloriously pure, well-delineated Lafite. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"300859 - Bonvin Wine \u0026 Spirits Merchants Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48347353776340,"sku":"131738","price":2079.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/7645\/6404\/files\/9856093-chateau-lafite-rothschild-1995.jpg?v=1784767052","url":"https:\/\/borderlinebottles.ca\/products\/chateau-lafite-rothschild-1995","provider":"Borderline Bottles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
