Lot #139. Latour 1996

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 100 WA.
"The nose offers a tantalizing array of complex notes including dried Chinese plums, toasted nuts, Indian spices and black olive tapenade over a core of dried cherries and aged meat. The palate is pure power that is stunningly balanced giving a generous level of fruit concentration perfectly offset by a high level of very finely grained tannins and seamless freshness. Possessing a finish that just goes on and on, this is as good as it gets." Wine Advocate #1112, Nov 2012
Provenance: The Cisalpine Cellar
Notes: Very lightly scuffed labels, 1 slightly recessed cork.
