blind, side by side with 1971 Everybody at the table preferred surprisingly the 71. Someone detect because of the walnut perfume correctly the winery but we were much younger. The 70 was edgy and not that balanced as the 71. Missing the fruit, some tobacco notes. 94-95

Drank with a friend for his 54 th birthday. Lived up to its reputation perfect color of course soft tannins but the fruit held up beautifully Loved the long finish Also opened a Forts Latour same year that was also beautiful but without the complexity rate that 90

Much better than the last bottle. Great fill and only a small amount of sediment. Balanced and great complexity. Had alongside a bottle of '59 Latour. I liked the '59 better, but this was still terrific!

(Chateau Latour) This was showing beautifully. Nose of leather, burnt charcoal, dark cassis and earth. Perfectly mature palate with stellar fruit and wonderful freshness. Killer finish. Not profound but a perfect example of great mature Bordeaux. I would easily drink this again.
