Château Lafite, 2005 Sweets Extraordinarily elegant rendition of CarignanHaving tasted the 2005 Chteau Lafite Rothschild several times both blind and non blind, it comes across as a First Growth politely requesting more time to settle. Here, from an ex chteau bottle tasted in Bordeaux, it delivers that graphite, pencil box bouquet that unfurls gradually in the glass, biding its time, graceful but not intense. Parallel to some of its fellow 2005s, it is developing a little more spice, namely thyme and sage, than I recall.
