Community Tasting Note

93 Points

Sunday, May 21, 2017 - First Growth Bordeaux 1978, 1979, 1981 (The Lot): Darkest, most youthful looking of the 1981 flight. Firmer, bolder nose with darker fruits than the other 3 of the flight. The palate stood similarly, darker fruit, more power than the others in the flight, supporting the "iron fist in a velvet glove" style of Latour. Drinking well and edging out the LMHB for best of the 1981s tonight.

This bottle was ranked 4th of the 8 first growths tonight
