4/20/2024 - dbenglis Likes this wine: 97 pointsThe best of the best. Had a Latour 82 the night before and my palate leans toward the Lafitte. Mature and ready now (would like to hear how it could evolve from here). Novice collector. |

4/20/2024 - dbenglis Likes this wine: 94 pointsInitial nose was a bit off putting. I allowed the wine to open up in a decanter for about an hour. The wine just needed to breath. Excellent bottle. Drinking well now. This particular bottle did not have the complexity in the tertiary notes compared to Lafitte of the same year. I realize this observation could be attributed to bottle variability and I also do not have other experiences with this particular vintage. |

2/11/2024 - dbenglis Likes this wine: 94 pointsI coravined the wine but ended up drinking the whole bottle. On initial inspection the nose was supple with tertiary hints. First taste was somewhat acidic but over time the wine opened up and was pleasurable. It is not the 89 but I love this wine. I had it with filet in cast iron skillet with shallots, garlic and rosemary, caramelized onions, and lemon potatoes. |

4/11/2022 - dbenglis Likes this wine: 92 pointsSuperb. MacArthur Beverages. Mahler Besse bottle. I now believe last bottle I drank was flawed in 2019 bc I had a relatively negative review. This one still had some aging time, tertiary characteristics. |
