Lafite (Mid-shoulder fill damaged label and cap) - 1976 (1.5L) Size:750ml The odd lots of oldThe 1976 Lafite clearly stands far above the crowd in this vintage. A beautiful bouquet of seductive cedarwood, spices, and ripe fruit precedes a very concentrated, darkly colored wine, with great length and texture. Some amber is just beginning to appear at the edge. The 1976 has turned out to be the best Lafite of the '70s. It is gorgeous to drink at present. Anticipated maturity: Now 2005. Last tasted, 9 96.
