2013 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac from this lot has the following scores - James Suckling 95 points, Wine Enthusiast 94 points, Decanter 94 points. This is the tasting note for 2013 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac from Robert Parker - The 2013 Lafite-Rothschild is a blend of 98% Cabernet Sauvignon and just 2% Merlot. It has a straightforward, focused, undergrowth and tobacco-scented bouquet, nicely defined if perhaps missing the complexity and nuance of recent vintages. The palate is supple on the entry with notes of tart cherry, wild strawberry and a touch of graphite. It is certainly approachable for Lafite-Rothschild, balanced, though missing structure and density towards the sappy finish. It is a lightweight Lafite-Rothschild that does improve with aeration as it did in barrel, yet it never scales the heights of the greatest vintages from this First Growth.
