Verkostungsnotizen
Robert Parker 90
Tasted alongside Chateau Lafite 1992, a more classic Pauillac nose: cedar, pencil-lead and dusty black fruits. Develops more aromas in the glass, with a touch of green pepper and a slight tinny note. The palate is well-balanced, a little more concentrated than Lafite with firmer tannins and structure. Austere and conservative but with good grip and persistency. Not a wine that would show well on its own, but a perfect accompaniment to food. Drink now. Having said that, I think I would choose the Latour 1991 over the 1992, the former a little riper and vigorous. Tasted July 2004.
