這年氣候很適宜耕作，為葡萄生長提供了最佳條件。隨後，8月的天氣惡劣，寒冷多雨，讓釀酒人的興致大跌。幸運的是，明媚的陽光在9月又重回這裡。

品酒筆記（灌瓶時）：

該年份的三大階段最終為我們帶來了一款味道豐富、濃郁芬芳、酒體平衡、複雜飽滿的葡萄酒。一些愛好者認為，“96年份酒”融合了1953年份的優雅和1959年份的濃烈：這是一款集榮耀於一身的至美之作，就算歷經時光磨礪，仍將閃耀出經久不衰的璀璨光芒！

Tasted three times since bottling, the 1996 Lafite-Rothschild is unquestionably this renowned estate's greatest wine. As I indicated last year, only 38% of the crop was deemed grand enough to be put into the final blend, which is atypically high in Cabernet Sauvignon (83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 7% Merlot, and 3% Petit Verdot). This massive wine may be the biggest, largest-scaled Lafite I have ever tasted. It will require many years to come around, so I suspect all of us past the age of fifty might want to give serious consideration as to whether we should be laying away multiple cases of this wine. It is also the first Lafite-Rothschild to be put into a new engraved bottle (designed to prevent fraudulent imitations). The wine exhibits a thick-looking, ruby/purple color, and a knock-out nose of lead pencil, minerals, flowers, and black currant scents. Extremely powerful and full-bodied, with remarkable complexity for such a young wine, this huge Lafite is oozing with extract and richness, yet has managed to preserve its quintessentially elegant personality. This wine is even richer than it was prior to bottling. It should unquestionably last for 40-50 years. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2050.RP
