"The wine was showing spectacularly well when I tasted it in November, 1997. It exhibits a dark ruby purple colour, and a sweet, powdered mineral, smoky, weedy cassis-scented nose. Beautiful sweetness of fruit is present in this medium-bodied, tightly-knit, but gloriously pure, well-delineated Lafite" Robert Parker
