Château Latour
Grand Vin Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2002
HBTM! 🥳 🎉🎂 🎈
A Christmas present from Sofia.
This is still somewhat taut and dry, meaty tannins. The first time you should open this Grand Vin. Decanted four and a half hours. It has another 20 years of good drinking ahead.
Bramble, dry blackberries, black plum, black raspberries, dry, dark cherries. Dry twig, dry crushed rocks, lead pencil for days, sandstone/limestone, dark, rich, earth with dry leaves, cigar box, ash, leathery, dark spice, clove, nutmeg, cinnamon sticks and vanillin, slightly, moist, volcanic clay, dry & withering flowers that are dark, red and violets framed in lavender, perfect round acidity, structured, well tensioned, overly balanced to earth and smartly polished finish that lands on earth & spice. 
The 02 should be opened in another 8-10 years and will still drink well in another 20 years properly stored.
Paired with AB Brothers Ribcap, crispy baked potato & cooked carrots.
Photos of, their late summer, early fall vineyards and their iconic storage building/vineyard & stainless tanks.
The 07 Turnbull Napa almost seemed grape juice like after the 82 Les Forts & 02 Latour. — a year ago
