Same nose as the ‘95 Forts but less pronounced. More powerful, mushroomy and floral on the palate, Indian spice, more cigar and black currant. In a perfect place.

A few years younger than the vintage last night. Similar dirt, forest floor, mushroom and dark red fruit with a hint of smoke.

Absolutely delicious if atypical. Deep blood orange, black cherry, graphite, elegant and the definition of finesse. Lavender and resolved tannins. A wonderful wine.

Cedar, leather, cassis, & juniper bundled with nice, soft tannins. Balanced & delicious. One more in the cellar. Simon says, "we may have to drink the other tomorrow!"

Awesome.

Nose has some vegetal notes and some god’s raspberry licorice.

Palate is god’s raspberries. Dense but so juicy. Awesome. Some licorice.

Выпито 12.11.19 в ресторане Sultanah. Второй раз в жизни пью chateau La Tour. В этот раз 1998 года- каберне совиньон 75%, Мерло 20%, остаток - каберне Франции и пти вердо. Вино созрело. Нежное,глубокое послевкусие( нотки сливы). С каждым глотком чувствуется величие одного из грандов классификации 1855 . Мое.
