Chateau Lafite-Rothschild 1986 Size::6 Bottle Case spice and a wet-slate character1986 produced a plentiful harvest of high quality deep garnet in color, concentrated but rather light, and with a remarkable tannin. In a word, it was a great combination of vintage 1945 and 1949. It is a very good vintage with considerable potential that is destined for a long evolution.
