Note di degustazione
Aromas of dark fruit, smoke, tobacco and a touch of earth. Soft on the palate and perfectly approachable, with attractive vivacity and freshness that complement the core flavors. Drink or hold. 10 Years On retrospective.

Restrained, firm tannins, dark black fruits, confident with waves of cigar box and espresso. Not showy, high quality with good life ahead.
The 2016 Carruades de Lafite has a richer, more opulent bouquet compared to its peers, featuring intense blackberry, boysenberry and cassis fruit, if perhaps not displaying the precision of other Pauillacs. The medium-bodied palate is not quite as luxurious as the aromatics, displaying supple tannins and a slightly powdery texture. There’s good depth here and fine acidity, plus plenty of black pepper toward the finish. Fine. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting.
Tasted blind. Quite a burly nose. Big and beefy. Robust. Chunky. Very dry on the end. Sincere rather than charming. Lots packed in here. Wait awhile! Exciting. (JR)
