Lafite Rothschild 1994 Sine Qua Non Lacking the bombast of theInto neck 90 points Vinous The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. That tannins are coarser than recent vintages, and there is a little hardness on the finish that would have been mollified by the Merlot, but this stocky Lafite Rothschild is still going strong. Just partner it with the right dish rather than drink on its own. (NM) (7 2018)
