De halve fles Château Les Forts de Latour 2014 toont een diepe robijnrode kleur en biedt een complexe neus van zwarte bessen, cederhout en een vleugje truffel.

In de mond is hij zijdezacht, met rijpe tannines en een prachtige balans tussen kracht en elegantie.

Ik proef iets van zwarte kersen, grafiet en kruiden die leiden naar een lange, verfijnde afdronk. Een klassieke Pauillac met veel diepgang en potentieel voor verdere rijping. — 6 days ago

#AgedWineTuesday

Very light salmon in color.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity. Crisp and refreshing.

Very dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing raspberries, limes, citrus, green apples, yeast, brioche, spices and minerals.

Still very young and needs 10 years in the bottle to mature properly. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 25 years.

A blend of 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay.

12% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

Pale lemon in color with light golden hue.

Light nose and medium in body with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing lemons, yellow apples, oak, vanilla, spices, almonds, grapefruits and light herbs.

Clean finish with limes and grapefruits.

Nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel. Crisp and refreshing.

Lots of oak and vanilla notes show up after 45 minutes of airtime.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food. Better when properly chilled.

13% alcohol by volume.

Depth and concentration, this bottle is an ode to south saint joseph wines, with great balance and complexity. To achieve a better grade I need more finesse, but the vintages is also like that — 5 days ago

I had the 2014 Latour a couple of years back. It was from a half bottle and I remember it was rather disappointing. But this wine has really come around. Or maybe it has been developing much better in a full size bottle. Today it’s graceful, with great posture and in perfect balance. A timeless beauty. I had a few 2014 (both left and right bank) lately and I find them very appealing right now. A unsung vintage that turned out pretty good imo. — 23 days ago

Cherries, tobacco, coffee, blah, blah, blah. It was a nice wine with good balance though, don’t get me wrong. It paired well with my filet. — 6 days ago

Initially nice with red fruits, opening up with more forest floor after about 15 mins. 30 mins later, the heat of the vintage comes out. So, really enjoyable, but only for a pretty narrow window of time. — 13 days ago
