Wow. Our wine of the vintage, Latour 2009 is a real tour de force, an exceptional wine, which must rank as one of the greats from this estate and one of the greatest wines ever produced. An extraordinarily complex nose; kaleidoscopically beautiful and impressive. A veritable smorgasbord of aromas such as cut violets, crushed minerals, liquorice, tar and cherry blossom. It possesses extraordinary depth and power. Pure, silky, multidimensional fruit delights the palate. This has astonishing length and complexity. Restrained, supreme, velvety textured, a wonderful balancing act of power and finesse. What is so remarkable about this wine is not the extraordinary array of aromas and flavours, or the impeccable balance, or the outrageous concentration, but the structure. The tannins are honed from granite, that it to say, they are solid, built for an eternity, yet rounded and smooth. A wonderfully complex, mineral Latour that exudes class and breed; exceptional. An enormous 91.3% of the blend is Cabernet Sauvignon with just 8.7% Merlot. This is like Wagner in a bottle.
