The 2019 Latour a Pomerol is a classic in the making. I popped and poured, and was delighted to sip an excellent young wine. The 2019 Bordeaux wines have the makings of a top notch vintage. This is especially true in Pomerol. The wine itself has little tannin and has an abundance of fruit waiting to emerge. Very tempting right now, but you'll need fifteen to twenty years before it reaches its potential. Is it worth $109 a bottle? I'd consider that a bargain.

Fresh, silky, lush, polished and rich, the wine is packed with loads of silky-textured, dark, cherries, plums, flowers, espresso, wet earth and cocoa. Give this a few years in the cellar and enjoy it for at least 2 decades after that. Drink from 2025-2047.

The truffles say hello with little effort before discovering all the voluptuous black cherries, ripe plums, dark cocoa, flowers and accents of juicy kirsch and more dark chocolate in the endnote. The wine is rich, lush, earthy and fresh. Give this 5-7 years and enjoy it over the following 20 years or longer. Latour Pomerol keeps getting better year after year and 2019 clearly continues the trend. 93-95 Pts

Bordeaux 2019 Langtons Arrival Tasting: Very complete balanced and elegant. Well framed fruit - red/black. Nice savoury and drying complexity.
