The temperatures in March and April were quite high, which was good for growth. From then until August the weather was grey and mild, without extremes. Luckily the weather in September was good and settled which allowed the grapes to ripen well in calm conditions. Complete ripening for the sugar, tannins and skins was only achieved 125 days after flowering – a vegetative cycle longer than usual in a year with 13 lunar cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery ripe red fruit on the nose. Closed at first, then full and open. Elegant and charming, still somewhat discreet, good length. Integrated oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e94 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003cbr\u003eTasted at BI Wine \u0026amp; Spirits' 10-Years-On tasting, the 2007 Lafite-Rothschild has an elegant cigar box bouquet, with dusky black fruit and a touch of antique bureau—just classic Lafite. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, cedar and tobacco infusing the black fruit, classic in style with a conservative yet focused finish that lingers in the mouth. This is certainly the most subtle First Growth, but one of the most refined too—a sophisticated but understated Lafite-Rothschild that will age with discrete style. Tasted February 2017.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e94 points Wine Enthusiast\u003cbr\u003eThis is a wine for aging. The tannins are dense, very dry with a feel of extraction. It takes a while for the black currant fruit to show through, with acidity and freshness dominant. The wine is still settling, and time will bring the fruit into line with the tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Logan, Chateau Lafite Rothschild","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45272106238176,"sku":"122446","price":747.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/chateau-lafite-rothschild-pauillac-premier-grand-cru-classe_1_61bdb0e6-d4d5-403d-8a88-7594d8ff39df.jpg?v=1713211588","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/chateau-lafite-rothschild-pauillac-premier-grand-cru-classe-2007-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
