Michael Schuster | Dense and full of subtle, freshly ripe black fruit, persistent and gently gravelly in aroma, a typical youthful Latour nose; rich, elegant, fresh, firmly but very finely tannic, a grand, vital- seeming set of proportions; deep, crisply ripe, gravel-backed in aromas, long and resonant across the palate, beautifully defined, very tenacious, very understated and non-flamboyant; mouth-coating, ample, but beautifully contained by its freshness, and with great, resonant length. Understated in a way, but none the worse for that, a wine of great scope and a great deal to say. A splendid, non-showy beauty, absolutely complete, compact, packed with matter, effortlessly grand and aromatic, but in an almost reticent manner for the moment. 2035–65+.
