The 1995 Latour a Pomerol should develop into an outstanding wine, but it was revealing considerable grip and structure following bottling. It possesses a dark ruby/purple color, as well as a distinctive nose of smoked herbs, black fruits, iron, mulberries, and spice. The wine is generous, ripe, and mouthfilling, with medium to full body, and excellent richness and purity, but the wine's tannic clout and slight bitterness kept it from receiving an outstanding score. Several years in the bottle could result in an excellent, perhaps outstanding Latour a Pomerol.
A pretty, elegant Pomerol, but the big disappointment of my tasting since I scored it 95-100 points in barrel tastings. Beautiful aromas of blackberries and porcini mushrooms. Full-bodied, with silky tannins and a lovely, smooth finish.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 17/20 points.
