Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (91.3%) and Merlot (8.7%). A bit tight and unexpressive right out of the bottle. After a 45 minute decant, this wine was awake and very alive. Dark ruby color. Aromas of graphite, forest floor, wet gravel and dark black fruit. Flavors of black currant/cherry/berry/plum, tobacco, baking spices, dark chocolate and minerals. Distinct notes of smoky oak and wet earth on the long and lingering finish. Tannins were a bit lighter than expected at first but developed with aeration. Quite savory, rich, full bodied and powerful. Beautiful texture. Exceptional (once it opened up) but not the bottle of near perfection that I had heard so much about. Thanks for sharing, Petey and Happy Birthday, Kase! — 3 days ago

Ett elegant och välbalanserad chardonnay med en fin harmoni mellan frukt och fat. Behaglig smörighet med subtila ektoner ger en nyansrik och sofistikerad karaktär. Frisk syra lyfter helheten och ger en lång, mjuk avslutning. — 2 months ago

Dark garnet color with ruby highlights. Aromas of sour black cherries, forest floor and wet soil. Flavors of blackberry, black currants, blueberry and black licorice. Long and lasting finish. Soft tannins and solid balance. Nothing over the top, but an enjoyable and quaffable wine. — 8 days ago

Have had the 2009 vintage twice, in 2024 at a tasting and in early 2025.  The first was the best of the tasting, and the second was a fine compliment to spring leg of lamb.  dark fruit and smooth tannins. $68 when purchased in 2024.  — 3 months ago

Latour is definitely one of my top three Bordeaux’s.

Even their 3rd wine is special. First 2010 from the vintage I’ve opened. It didn’t disappoint. Just coming around to nice drinking and has another 10-15 years ahead. 3 hour decant.

Ribeye wine. Happy cow from Los Gatos Meats.
