Following a strong effort in 2009, the 2010 is one of the finest Latour a Pomerols produced in many years. Tiny yields (due to the spotty flowering of the Merlot) and small berries (a result of the drought) have produced a dense purple-colored wine with lots of licorice, camphor, black currant, earth and spice notes. The sweetness of the tannins along with the wine's density, opulence and richness make it one of the finest recent examples from this estate (which is attempting to reclaim the legendary status it enjoyed in such ancient vintages as 1947, 1950, 1959 and 1961). The 2010 should drink well for 20 or more years.
