Château Latour--Vintage 2002
Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
"The wine of the vintage? There are only 10,000 cases of this extraordinarily rich, dense 2002 that is as powerful as the 2003 (even the alcohol levels are nearly the same, 12.85. It is dark ruby purple to the rim, with notes of English walnuts, crushed rocks, black currants and forest floor, dense, full-bodied and opulent, yet classic with spectacular aromatics, marvelous purity and a full-bodied finish that lasts over 50+ seconds. Huge richness and the sweetness of the tannin are somewhat deceptive as this wine seems set for a long life. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2045." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #158 (April 2005)
