  • 2016 Château Latour-Martillac

    France, Bordeaux, Graves, Pessac-Léognan

    The wine shows a very thick colour.
    The wine shows very thick dense fruit forward nose, overripe dark fruit, sweet spice notes, thick oak frame, smooth and warm, fruit in alcohol, nutmeg, clove, VA/varnish, marmelade notes.
    In the palate, the wine follows the style, warm, overripe blak fruit, thick oak frame, bold tannins, there is a bit of evolution here, some VA notes again, not that pleasant really, med and dry finish.
    The wine feels a bit boring (if I had to drink a whole bottle), one dimensional
