About this Item
In style the wine is powerful, structured and compelling, and has been for many the most consistent performer amongst the First Growth Wines over the past century, acquiring an enviable reputation for producing very good wine in the more challenging vintages. It has great potential to age, with the best vintages lasting a century or more.
Provenance
Private Client wine stored at Great Domaines
Critics Ratings
'Full, round, soft. Not so dense or typically Latour as I expected. Edge of minerality.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Jan 2008)
'This is so decadent and exciting on the nose, with very ripe fruit, tobacco, meat and cedar. Full-bodied, offering amazing raspberry fruit in the core of the palate. Ultrapolished, velvety tannins wonderfully coat every inch of your palate. This will age for years ahead, but it's so lovely now. Much better than many people think.' - Wine Spectator, 94/100 (May 2010)
