Château Lafite 1982 Pauillac, 1er Cru Classéu. vts, slightly scuffed label and capsule, original tissue partially adhered on label and bottle, purchased from 'The Classic Cellar From A Great American Collector IX' at Sotheby's Hong Kong on 31 March 201265% Cabernet Sauvignon in this vintage. On Christmas Eve 2013, an incredibly rich, spicy, leathery nose, multi-layered and meaty. The taste balances fresh acidity with real maturity and it is just so 'thick' and velvety. Enormous tannic structure with irony backbone. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 97+1 jero - 5 litres (cn)Estimates are per lot
