1978 Chateau Latour Grand Vin Pauillac
What can we say about Chateau Latour which hasn't already been said a thousand times before? Quite simply, the world's greatest red wines are produced here. Classic, powerful reds, which in many vintages will require 20 to 70 years or more in the cellar.
Dark intense colour. A dense, black olive-tinged nose. Distinct minerally, iron note on a the palate. Burnt toast/cassis notes. Very tannic. Very masculine Latour. Possibly will dry out before it ever matures.
