Precise, structured tannins on a dense, deep palate make this a powerful wine with energy and balance that convey refinement and freshness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e99 Points - James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRipe and very powerful aromas of black licorice, currants and violets.

Deep garnet-purple in color, it starts off a little broody before exploding from the glass with powerful scents of ripe blackcurrants, blackberry pie and preserved black cherries plus touches of cedar chest, fenugreek, cumin seed and charcoal with emerging wafts of violets, dark chocolate, star anise and fertile loam. Medium-bodied, this may be one of the most elegant, great Latours ever, revealing layer upon layer of fresh, crunchy black fruits with a vast array of exotic spice and floral nuances, framed by super ripe, super fine-grained tannins, finishing very long with mineral sparks coming through. This is so nuanced and perfumed that I imagine, in 50 years, this wine could be mistaken for a great red Burgundy.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\" itemprop=\"reviewBody\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\" itemprop=\"reviewBody\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98 Points - \u003cspan class=\"pipProdProReviews_name\" itemprop=\"author\"\u003eWine Spectator\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\" itemprop=\"reviewBody\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\" itemprop=\"reviewBody\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pipProdProReviews_review\" itemprop=\"reviewBody\"\u003eA pure, sleek, seamless beauty, featuring a crystal-clear core of cassis, cherry and damson plum fruit racing along, glistening with lilac, iron and wet pebble notes.

They give what is also a fruity wine power, density and shape. Don't forget the fruits though, because they will be a powerhouse of richness as they mature.
