Offers currant and blackberry aromas, with hints of flowers. Starts as a slow attack on the palate, then builds with superpolished tannins and pretty fruit, offering berries and mineral. Long and caressing. - 91-94 points Wine Spectator

Notes of pure cassis, cedar and graphite on the nose with a mineral-infused and multi-layered palate, this is unmistakably top grade Pauillac with a strong Cabernet signature. There is high tannin here but without a hint of dryness and together with high acidity, these are two essential components for long keeping. The embryonic perfumes and aromas are still forming at this stage but the outstanding length already shows that this is a wine of the highest calibre. There is power and energy here, constantly driving the wine forward. This is an intense and extremely classical Latour that shows undeniable first growth class. Drink 2020-2035+
