Château Latour--Vintage 1996
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Tasting note: predictably stern and tannic in its youth. Very good notes at various tastings either side of 2000. then * add: Two recent notes: appearance very similar to Lafite; high-toned, ripe Cabernet Sauvignon aroma, crisp, high-toned, developed well in the glass; full-flavoured, attractive, on the lean side, very tannic and noticeable acidity. A long-hall wine. Last tasted Oct 2005 (****) 2016 -2030. M.B.
