SMALL LOTS OF FINE CLARET
Lying in Weybridge, Surrey (EHD)
Château Latour--Vintage 1988
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
In original wooden case. Excellent appearance. Levels into neck
Tasting note: Eight notes, first in cask. Unsurprisingly powerful, aggressive and astringent. After a decade, developing well, noting flesh round its muscles. In the present decade: crisp, fruity, 'salty' tannins. Most recently: not as deep as expected but with a rich core; 'cheese rind' nose with very sweaty tannins; dry, rich, fruit-packed, lovely flavour but very tannic. Last tasted Oct 2005 **(***) 2012- 2020.M.B.
