1970 Ch. Latour

Deep purple colour with pronounced level aromas of black plum, menthol, blackcurrant, violet, smoke, vanilla and graphite, quite unexpected. It is dry with medium acidity, alcohol and bodied with quite high fine grained tannin. On palate, it has slightly over medium intensity flavours of black cherry, plum, smoke, vanilla, toast, earth and touch of graphite. Fairly long length with black plum finish. (95) Quite consistent throughout and good complexity.

40多年酒一般已經開始飲歷史多過酒味了，但拉圖在捍衛著酒是可以永恆的信條。仍然有著強烈的酒香和酒味，複雜性充足，餘韻亦長，以表現說這酒完全與年齡不成正比。酒的表現由聞到吞也很一致。好好飲，靚酒真的可以有很強的生命力。老路縱橫的一枝好酒。
