Latour 1970

CRITIC REVIEWS

James Suckling

Soft, round and wonderful with currants, licorice and delicate berries with a stony, wet earth undertone. Full and velvety texture.

19.5

Jancis Robinson

So much richer, more evolved and more opulent than examples I had previously tasted. Much denser garnet than the Palmer 1970, a quite extraordinary depth of colour for a 53-year-old wine. Fully mature, meaty, complex and still bursting with life – though the finish is still bone dry in a Latourish way. No sign of fading fruit. What a revelation!
