BV Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2001
 |
|
BN#151915 |
Deep black cherry, black olive and complex, mineral-licorice aromas reflect classic Rutherford. One of the most powerful Georges de Latour Cabernets in recent years, the dark berry flavors are framed by powerful, rich tannins. Well balanced and full-bodied, the finish features the dense minerality and structure typical of Clones 6 and 4.
Wine Enthusiast
Classic Georges, balanced and ageworthy, yet riper and lusher than any Private Reserve in memory. Magnificently ripe fruit, rich in currants and cocoa, well-oaked, with ripe, supple tannins. Doesn't try to out-wow the competition in power, but the equilibrium is its strong point. Drink now-2015.
Score: 93.
