Château Latour-Martillac 2005

Aromas of crushed berries, flowers and stones. It’s very ripe and rich. Yet it remains fresh. It’s full-bodied, with silky tannins and a crisp finish. It needs another year or two to soften but it’s already gorgeous to drink. Decant an hour or two before. [Will cellar through late-2030s and perhaps longer.] Score – 93.
