Robert Parker: The 1959 is unquestionably the greatest
Lafite-Rothschild that has approached full maturity. It remains to
be seen whether vintages such as 1982, 1986, and 1990 will reach a
similar height. The super-aromatic bouquet of flowers, black
truffles, cedar, lead pencil, and red fruits is followed by one of
the most powerful and concentrated Lafites I have tasted. Medium to
full-bodied, velvety-textured, rich, and pure, it is a testament to
what this great estate can achieve when it hits the mark. This
youthful wine will last for another 30 or more years.
