Château Latour à  (Pomerol)
93
Fully developed, the wine opens with cocoa-dusted roses, black raspberries, truffle, and herbal notes. With air, the wine develops strong mint notes. Medium-bodied, soft, easy to drink, with a dusty edge to the sweet red fruits, licorice, wet earth, green, leafy herbs, olives and wild cherries in the soft, fresh finish. This is at the peak of maturity, there is no reason to hesitate and not open a bottle, if you have any. Drink from 2023-2028.

Medium-bodied, soft, elegant, refined and silky expression of ripe cherries, plums, truffle and chocolate. This is probably close to full maturity, though there is no hurry to drink it.

I love how this wine is showing. It's silky, soft, elegant, fresh and loaded with cocoa dusted, cherries, plums, mushroom and flowers. Medium/full bodied, elegant and silky on the palate, this mature Pomerol delivers the goods.

I like the wine. I really like this style, with its nose of roses, hints of truffle, smoke, cherries and burning wood. The soft, silky texture really hits the spot. If only the wine were a bit more concentrated, this would be a stunner. At close to 17, this is in the sweet spot. You can age it for a few more years, but it's not necessary. Just pop, pour and enjoy.

Soft, smooth and round, with ripe, sweet, plums, chocolate covered cherries and truffle notes coupled with a silky finish. What more could you ask for?
