1978 Chateau Lafite Rothschild 'Carruades de Lafite', Pauillac, France

1978 Chateau Lafite Rothschild 'Carruades de Lafite', Pauillac, France image

"This wine is distinctively herbaceous and cedary, with surprisingly high acidity, and aggressive tannin in the finish. Its medium garnet color and smoky, roasted herb-scented nose are followed by a wine with good fruit on the attack, but an angular, sharp finish. The wine appears to be closer to full maturity than its younger sibling, the 1979." Wine Advocate
