Tobacco leaf, peppery herbs, creme de cassis, forest floor, cedar, and white pepper notes open the aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine is sweet, rich, ripe, fresh and clean, with layers of blackberries, and black currants. There is a softness to the tannins, as well as structure to the creamy-textured wine, and freshness in the finish that you can feel as it lingers. The wine was produced from blending 58.7% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37.9% Merlot, and 3.4% Petit Verdot. 14.47% ABV, 3.7 pH. The wine represents 41% of the harvest. Drink from 2028-2045. 94-96 Pts.

94 vvPunkte / Subtile, tiefgründige Nase, rote Waldbeeren, Cassis, Lavendelblüten. Im Gaumen mit Rasse und Schliff, kein Gramm Fett, viel Druck, die Tannine sind hochwertig, die Säure stimmt, das hat Zug und Frische, hallt lange nach, wird hervorragend reifen und doch früh Spass machen, denn diese bezaubernde Frucht ist schlicht, ein Spektakel. Ein grosser Forts de Latour. 2030-2055+ (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 auf Château Latour) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch

En Primeur campaign for the 2022 vintage Day Six (Bordeaux): Polished oak, sweet spice, a little caramel, plum, blackcurrant, a touch of blackberry on the nose. slightly plush dark hued fruit married to oaky flavours on the palate, grainy tannins are working with this, a fair lick of alcohol warmth on the finish, It feels a little extracted. Hmm.
