Truly the perfect pair to add to any wine collection: one bottle of 2002 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac and one bottle of 2002 Chateau Margaux Premier Grand Cru Classe
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate scores the 2002 Chateau Margaux a 93 out of the bottle, stating "It has a beautifully elegant nose of black fruits intermixed with truffle, flower, and oak. The wine is medium to full-bodied, dense, with wonderful precision, freshness, and a long, full-bodied finish."
Chateau Margaux, a Premier Grand Cru Classé Bordeaux, is one of the most famous wines in the world - and for good reason. This bottle is sure to impress wine lovers who appreciate a wine with body and personality. Best enjoyed before 2030.
In scoring 2002 Chateau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac a 95, Wine Spectator notes the unique nature of this vintage. "Bubbling over with crushed berries, currants and spices, with tobacco notes. Beautiful. Full-bodied, with gorgeously velvety tannins and a long finish of pretty fruit. This is a racy yet elegant Lafite."
Chateau Lafite has been known as a premier French winemaker since their first public mention in the 1200's, and count Thomas Jefferson among their loyal historic customers. Add this bottle to your cellar and enjoy it before 2025.
