2005 Chateau Latour - Bordeaux, Pauillac 1er Grand Cru Classé - 1

100 The Wine Independent LPB 100 Vinous AG 100 Wine & Spirits 100 Wine Enthusiast Bought en primeur First owner, never moved Perfect conditions The 2005 Latour is made from 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-brick in color, it gallops out of the glass with incredibly youthful, powerful creme de cassis, blackberry pie, and plum preserves scents, followed by wafts of violets, licorice, eucalyptus, and fertile loam. Medium to full-bodied, super-concentrated, and energetic in the mouth, it has a rock-solid structure of firm, beautifully ripe tannins and so many layers, finishing on a long, lingering anise note. While it is beautifully open and expressive at the moment, it remains incredibly primary and therefore could be a disappointment for those seeking a more evolved, tertiary experience. I would give it another 5-7 years in bottle, at least, knowing this will likely cellar to 2070 and beyond. Extra charges and ancillary fees (for import shipments) may be applied if the shipment to countries oustide the EU. We do not ship to the UK
