You probably know, even if you have never tasted them, that Lafite is synonymous with elegance, Mouton with power. Lafite is fragrant and ethereal, Mouton loud and fleshy. Lafite is Leonardo to Mouton’s Michelangelo. If they made clothes, Lafite would be Armani and Mouton, Versace. “If Lafite was an artist, it would be Chagall”, Eric Rothschild once told me. “If a musician–Mozart.”
Jay McInerney, “Bacchus & Me”
Ah, bienvenue, bienvenue, un puriste :-). Moi je préfère alterner mes Armani’s et Versace’s :-).
