This 1992 Latour from Pauillac displays the classical structure of a First Growth, with Cabernet Sauvignon as the dominant framework, supported by Merlot and Cabernet Franc. After three decades, the vintage has shed its youthful astringency and developed secondary notes of cedarwood, graphite and mature blackcurrant. The balance between power and elegance remains characteristic of Latour, though the 1992 incarnates the more refined end of the strength spectrum. At 13.5 per cent alcohol, the wine sits comfortably on the palate, and its cellaring potential remains intact with proper cool storage.
