Description
Château Lafite Rothschild 1997 (Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot)
Dark ruby color, ripe black currants, violets and vanilla, spicy, oaky scents. The wine has great finesse and a particular softness imparted by the Merlot. It tends to be firm yet delicate and supple, great elegance develops with age.
