Chateau Latour 1999 750mL (Slightly Scuffed Label) Size:750mL colossal concentration and mind-blowing finish"Readers looking for a modern day version of Latour's magnificent 1962 or 1971 should check out the sensational 1999 Latour. It is a big, concentrated offering, exhibiting a dense ruby purple color, and a classic nose of minerals, black currants, leather, and vanilla. The wine is long, ripe, and medium bodied, with high levels of sweet tannin. This surprisingly full, concentrated 1999 should be drinkable in 5 6 years; it will last for three decades."
