Château Latour 1991
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case. Capsule conge. Original tissues. Two slightly bin-soiled labels. Levels: base of neck or better
Tasting note: It is a candidate for the wine of the vintage because of its concentration and class. After a strict selection, only 11,500 cases were made. The wine offers a dense, dark ruby color, and a reticent but promising bouquet of black-cherries, cassis, minerals, roasted nuts, spices, and subtle herbs. Medium-bodied, with excellent richness, fine glycerin, and aggressive tannin, this ripe, muscular, beefy 1991 needs 5-6 years to shed its tannin. Robert Parker; Wine Advocate 91 February 1994.
