Tasting Notes 酒評
One of the fabulous surprises, although I had suggested last year that it could jump in quality, of my tastings, the 2006 Lafite Rothschild is a great, great wine made from a blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, and 2% Petit Verdot. When I tasted it from barrel, it reminded me of their successful 1988, but it is dramatically superior to that vintage. Frankly, it may turn out to be as good as the 2005, which in all of Bordeaux is a far greater vintage than 2006. Lafite's severe selection process (42% made it into the grand vin) resulted in a full-bodied wine boasting an extraordinary perfume of charcoal, truffles, lead pencil shavings, and sensationally sweet, ripe black currant and cedar notes. A wine of extraordinary intensity, texture, and depth with silky tannins as well as awesome concentration, this has turned out to be a remarkable Lafite Rothschild that should be drinkable much earlier than the 2005, but age for three decades. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2035+.
2006年份的拉菲羅斯柴爾德（Lafite Rothschild）是我品嚐過的最令人驚喜的葡萄酒之一。雖然我去年就曾預測它的品質可能會大幅提升，但它確實是一款非常出色的佳釀。這款酒由82%的赤霞珠、16%的梅洛和2%的小維鐸混釀而成。當我品嚐桶裝原酒時，它讓我想起了酒莊成功的1988年份，但這款酒的品質遠勝於1988年份。坦白說，它最終的品質或許可以媲美2005年份，而2005年份在整個波爾多產區都遠勝於2006年份。拉菲嚴格的篩選流程（只有42%的葡萄能入選正牌酒）造就了這款酒體飽滿、香氣非凡的葡萄酒，散發著木炭、松露、鉛筆屑的芬芳，以及令人陶醉的甜美成熟的黑醋栗和雪松氣息。這款酒風味濃鬱、口感豐富、層次深邃，單寧如絲般柔滑，濃鬱度驚人，堪稱一款卓越的拉菲羅斯柴爾德佳釀。雖然2005年份的酒款現在即可飲用，但更適合陳年三十年。預計適飲期：2014-2035年及以後。
