The 1999 Latour has a dark garnet color with little aging on the rim. The nose is closed initially and demands coaxing, eventually revealing blackberry, cedar and light pencil-shaving aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with soft tannins, displaying some secondary notes of clove, white pepper and a distinct earthiness that comes through on the finish. [Post-script: this is one of the few vintages I identified correctly!] Tasted blind from double magnum at a 20-year retrospective at the château. (Neal Martin, Vinous, February 2024)

I don’t get the drink Chateau Latour that much but thanks to a friend we had this . Still pretty primary did lack some sense of place, would not say this is profound . It was very savory and four square .

Full and solid but it lacked the vibrancy, depth and complexity I expect with Latour.

Enjoyable, but the finish detracted a little for me. It lacks alignment, but still excellent!

Classic graphite character. Fruit is getting to that nice dried, complex state. I think it needs a bit more time but great experience
