100 Points

Friday, September 7, 2018 - Follow up to the 2004 Latour as a contemplative dessert wine. This is an in your face, you-don't-know-$hit-about-wine wine! VA, red licorice, red currant, sour cherry, horse sweaty sweetness on the nose. Tre complex! Medium bodied, ruby red bordering on garnet colour. Slight fading at the rim. Complete sheeting on the glass when swirled with short legs that are slow to emerge. So smooth on the palate. Creamy almost porty mouthfeel. Deceptively sweet from all of that ripe red fruit. Barely perceptible tannins but they are still there at the sides of your tongue. Nice slight bitterness on the very long finish. This is paradigm shifting stuff! Just shut up and experience this wine! Don't try to understand it!
