Château Lafite Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1961

Fake wine. Cork said 1967. Came from a case that had others that had corks with 1964 on them that were shaved off. This was a wine that was doctored by the famous Rudy Kurniwan, now in jail. — 10 years ago

I think the 95 we had was a fake as well. Probably not a Rudy (too young) but very suspect.

Had it been re-corked (to allow numbers to be shaved off) or just re-labelled? If the former, do you think the contents were the '67 or something else?

Nett, aber nix extraordinäres. Sehr rund und tief. Kann man bestimmt zwei bis drei Flaschen hintereinandertrinken.
