Tasting Notes

88
Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Jul 18
The 1985 Latour comes from a rather “middling” period for the First Growth. It is a wine that I have tasted a dozen times or so and never come away impressed. The nose is fully mature with tertiary, smoky, leathery black fruit that does not exactly overwhelm with sophistication. The palate is medium-bodied, with lithe tannin, missing the fleshiness and roundness of say, the 1985 Château Margaux or even 1985 Léoville Las Cases. Dowdy? It saunters across the finish line with a subtle herbal note but it just lacks the stuffing of a great Latour. Tasted at a private dinner in London.

Pauillac wines are known for their power, structure, and longevity, featuring intense blackcurrant and blackberry flavours, with notes of cedar, tobacco, and graphite. Firm yet refined tannins support long-term ageing. Top producers include Château Lafite Rothschild for elegance, Château Latour for powerful structure, and Château Mouton Rothschild for its blend of power and finesse. Other notable estates include Château Pichon Longueville Baron and Château Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande.
