2016 Chateau Latour Pauillac Premier Grand Cru Classé Grüner Veltiner Half of the grapes areSuckling 100, This has a fascinating nose of tar, tobacco, graphite, dried flowers and blackberries. Remarkably youthful at 10 years of age. The palate is structured and medium to full bodied, yet the structure is tempered by elegance. The tannins are integrated, firm, cohesive and well aligned with the delineated dark fruit profile. Youthful and accessible now, but will evolve exceptionally well. Drink or hold. 10 Years On retrospective. Jacobo Garca
