|
The personality of Lafite comes through in the 1984 vintage. An elegant bouquet of herbaceous, cedary fruit is first class. New oak dominates the palate and some hard tannins exhibit a dryness at the finish. The 1984 is a light but well-balanced wine. Score: 84 Robert Parker, 'Bordeaux' 3rd Ed. Maturity: 1988+ 01 January 1998 |

Lean and tannic, with solid plum, cherry and chocolate flavors, but modest depth. Needs time for the tannins to soften, but will the fruit last? Score: 87 James Suckling, Wine Spectator 30 November 1991 |
