Community Tasting Note

• sdr Likes this wine: 97 points

  December 23, 2023 - I was concerned this bottle, a recent purchase from K&L Auction, was fake. The low-mid neck fill was (barely) believable. But the capsule was so bright and clean it looked like it was placed yesterday. The label too was very clean. The cork came out easily and firmly in one piece and was saturated to about one fourth yet was stamped correctly. But on tasting there was no doubt that this was simply a fabulously well preserved bottle with the tell-tale gravely fragrance and firm and juicy black fruit with a hint of fresh thyme that is Latour. Clearly at its majestic peak from perfectly stored bottles such as this.
