Friday, May 29, 2015 - Unbelievable, beating the Terreus '03 and the Clinet '05, This Les Forts was so easily to recognize as Latour or Les Forts with its magical cigarbox expression. I was wrong with the vintage, guessing '71 or '85. This wine from a modest vintage had the Latour bouquet, just that slightly severe taste and body with impressions (still!) of dark fruit, very good backbone, long aftertaste, no frays due to age. To repeat, unbelievable; only Latour can do this. My advice, enjoy your remaining bottles soon. A perfect choice of my friend Loek.
