Because Lafite-Rothschild tends to lack the weight of many wines of the northern Medoc, and is never a flashy, ostentatious style of wine, it is often more difficult to evaluate when young than some of its neighbors. A successful wine for Lafite, this dark ruby/purple-colored Lafite Rothschild 1993 is tightly-wound, medium-bodied, with a closed set of aromatics that reluctantly reveal hints of sweet blackcurrant fruit, weedy tobacco, and lead pencil scents. Polished and elegant, with Lafite’s noble restraint, this is an excellent, classy, slightly austere wine.
