Château Latour--Vintage 2008
6 magnums per lot
Château Latour--Vintage 2008 Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled "Delicious! The 2008 Latour shows ripe blackberry, currant and plum fruit aromas shaded with spice and mineral notes on the nose. On the palate the wine has a very firm tannic structure, but is also round and full, with no hard corners, astringency, or over-extractedness. Very successful."Charles Curtis M. W., April 2009 "I actually think the 2008 Latour will turn out to be even better than the 2005 or 2000. The 2008 Latour is a more concentrated version of the 1996. A fabulous infant, it exhibits an inky/purple color as well as extraordinarily pure notes of crème de cassis, crushed rocks, and flowers. The fact that there is no hint of oak is a testament to the vintage's density and richness. The wine possesses full-bodied power as well as a boatload of tannin, and it is even more backward than Lafite Rothschild." 96-98 points, Robert Parker April 2009 6 magnums per lot
