Offered in original wooden case
Château Latour--Vintage 1983
Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
Levels into neck
Tasting note: Tasted from my cellar, this wine is fully mature, not terribly concentrated, and slightly herbaceous, exhibiting aromas of sweaty saddle leather, melted asphalt, tobacco, and red as well as black fruits. Notions of caramel and roasted nuts also emerge. A medium-bodied effort with soft tannin, but little persistence and length, it requires consumption over the next decade. 88 points.
