Expert Review
LANGTONS
Without a doubt the 2006 Latour stands alongside Mouton and La Mission Haut-Brion as one of the wines of the vintage.
The 2006 Latour’s inky/ruby/purple color precedes pure aromas of red and black fruits, high tannin, medium body, impressive sweetness and purity as well as a long finish. Thirty-eight percent of the production (about 10,000 cases) made it into the final blend (86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, and 1% Cabernet Franc). A modern version of the 1986 and 1996, the slightly austere 2006 will need a decade of aging. It should keep for 40-50 years. 93-96/100 RP Jr.
Ch Latour – which now only produces around 10,000 cases of Grand Vin – has made yet another impressive wine. It is still very elemental and firm with deep brooding roasted coffee/mocha/blackcurrant aromas, lovely concentration, plenty of sweet fruit and fine slinky firm tannins. Finishes grippy and long. It is more refined than 2005 but has plenty of substance and power. 94-95/100 AC
