An exceptionally pure and refined nose of white flowers

It s firing on all cylinders but certainly has another decade or more of prime drinking

but has the grip that suggests just how good this wine is

alcoholic and packed to the gills with incredibly sweet

Carruades Lafite other_regions An exceptionally pure and refinedMedium red ruby. Currant, cherry and licorice aromas complicated by cooler notes of tobacco leaf, menthol and fresh herbs. The palate offers limited sweetness, with the distinctly green element giving the wine a slightly tart impression. Offers only modest density and length, but I liked its almost sangiovese like floral quality. Stephen Tanzer
