Description
By Tim Atkin in 2012 (TA92)
Described by the château as a classic year, the 2011s at Lafite are solid rather than spectacular, partly because it resorted to chaptalisation for the first time since 2007. This is fresh and focused, if a little insubstantial, with attractive cassis fruit, less oak than usual and a slightly firm, dry finish.
By James Suckling in 2014 (JS90)
This is a red with chocolate, hazelnut and berry character. It’s full- to medium-bodied, with well-integrated tannins and a juicy finish. Very well done for the vintage.
