REVIEWS
International Wine Cellar, Stephen Tanzer, 2003-05 / 96 points
"Full medium ruby. Flamboyantly perfumed aromas of cassis, graphite and tobacco,
lifted by a floral nuance and stony minerality. Very young and precise but not austere or
forbidding. A remarkably rich, silky, seamless Lafite with superb vibrancy for the vintage.
Tannins are noble and the aristocratic finishing flavors go on and on. I tasted this from
a 375 ml. bottle, but from all reports this wine is equally approachable right now from a
standard bottle. Has more sheer density than the beautiful 2001 and may well soon shut
down in the bottle."
Wine Advocate, Robert Parker, 2003-04 / 100 points
"...The 2000 Lafite Rothschild, a blend of 93.3% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6.7% Merlot
(only 36% of the crop made the grade) has an opaque ruby/purple color, followed by
an extraordinary aromatic expression of liquid minerals/stones interwoven with the telltale graphite notes, mulberry, black currants, caramel, and tobacco. In the mouth, it
is remarkably light on its feet, but somehow seems to pack intense flavors into layer
upon layer of fruit and richness that cascade over the palate. A compelling wine, with
extraordinary precision, great intensity, and a seamlessness in spite of what are obviously
elevated levels of tannin, this wine was provocatively open and beautiful when tasted in
January and February, but I am sure it will soon close down. The finish lasted a whopping
72 seconds! This is utterly fascinating stuff. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2050."
Wine Spectator, James Suckling, 2003-01 / 100 points
"...This is the best young Lafite I have tasted. A triumph. Subtle aromas of currants,
leather, tobacco and cedar. Classic cigar box nose, with fruit. Full-bodied, with an amazing
texture of silky, ripe tannins. This wine completely coats your palate, but caresses it at the
same time. This is the best young Lafite ever made. A triumph. Best after 2012. 18,000
cases made."
