Chateau Latour 1999

Description:

Chateau Latour 1999
Pauillac, 1er Cru Classe
"Readers looking for a modern day version of Latour's magnificent 1962 or 1971 should check out the sensational 1999 Latour. It is a big, concentrated offering, exhibiting a dense ruby/purple color, and a classic nose of minerals, black currants, leather, and vanilla. The wine is long, ripe, and medium-bodied, with high levels of sweet tannin. This surprisingly full, concentrated 1999 should be drinkable in 5-6 years; it will last for three decades." R. Parker, 94 pts. 04/02
6 bottles
Estimate $1,800-2,400
