Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1982

1982 Bordeaux First Growth. Great vintage. Color is garnet with some rim variation. On the nose, black fruit, overripe plum, tobacco, spice, chocolate, a bit savory and deep down a minuscule amount of Brett. On the palate, dry, m- acid, silky smooth tannins. Black cherry, dark fruit, minerality, and brine. Definitely not overoaked. balanced beautifully! It took about 30 minutes to open up. A bit funky at first but then the fruit pushed forward. An elegant wine that would pair well with food. I enjoyed it on its own! A chance in a lifetime to drink this wine! #bordeauxwine, #greatwine #greatvintage #rightbank #100pts #wine #firstgrowthbordeaux #frenchwine #lifestooshorttodrinkbadwine #lifeisgood #studywine — 9 years ago
