91 Points - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
"The 1981 Lafite Rothschild is a classic wine showing some development but retaining its elegance and finesse. The bouquet reveals aromas of cedar, tobacco, and dried herbs, with hints of red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, well-integrated acidity, and a touch of earthiness. Although beginning to mature, the wine still maintains a refined structure. The finish is medium-long and graceful, though it lacks some intensity compared to better vintages.”
