Château Latour--Vintage 1986
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original tissues, excellent appearance. Levels: eleven into neck, one base of neck
Tasting note: A good note in 1998, attractive, well balanced. Most recently: very deep, intense and still youthful-looking for a 20-year old wine; crisp fruit, touch of ginger, slightly 'sweaty' tannic nose; good flavour, lively, touch of iron and a bit of a bite. Needs more time. Last tasted June 2004 *(***) 2010 and beyond. M.B.
