Heiner Lobenberg om:
Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1er Cru 2002

96
/100

Lobenberg: Ekstremt mørk rubinrød farve. Rød frugt og paprika i næsen. Klar dominans af Cabernet. Ligefrem i munden, meget tanninholdig. Livlig syre og frugt til det yderste. En ekstremt klassisk vin uden dikkedarer. Har brug for meget tid. 96/100

Wine Spectator om: Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1er Cru

Bubbling over with crushed berries, currants and spices, with tobacco notes. Beautiful. Full-bodied, with gorgeously velvety tannins and a long finish of pretty fruit. This is a racy yet elegant Lafite. Classy. Best after 2010. 16,000 cases made. 95/100

Parker om: Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1er Cru

As I have indicated in the past, under the administration of Charles Chevalier, Lafite-Rothschild has produced a tremendous succession of historic, possibly monumental wines since 1995. The 2002 will only add to Chevalier’s illustrious resume. Forty-seven percent of the crop made it into the grand vin, a blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9.5% Merlot, and 3.5% Cabernet Franc. It smells and tastes like liqueur of lead pencil intermixed with cassis and cherry jam. Opaque purple to the rim, relatively light on its feet, but super-concentrated and intense, it is reminiscent of a lighter-weight 1996, a wine that merited a perfect score. More forward than the 1996, the 2002 is extraordinarily concentrated, riveting juice that has impeccable harmony. 94-96/100

Château Lafite Rothschild fra Pauillac blev allerede nævnt som vinproducent i 1234 og kan se tilbage på en lang historie med succes. Selv Thomas Jefferson, USA's tredje præsident, satte pris på vinen, og derfor var det ikke overraskende, at Château Lafite Rothschild var en af de legendariske første...
