bought a bottle of lafite's second on a whim at binny's last week, and tried it last night.

took about an hour after uncorking (and pouring a glass) to open reasonably well. nice cherry and black fruit nose, got a lot of cherry on the palate. medium body, decent but not extremely long finish, tannins present but not overstated at all. i found this to be a very nice, drinkable wine, even at this age. and, i thought it to be a 'poor' price-value wine.....i paid about $30 for it.
