This is an old-style Latour that stubbornly refuses to grow old. Yes, it comes across as unashamedly classic and almost curmudgeonly on the nose with pencil shavings and cedarwood, though it remains fresh and vibrant. The palate is masculine, well balanced with firm, obdurate tannins, fruit a secondary consideration although you can forgive that because the finish is so well defined and focused. This is the kind of wine that expects you to stand up when it enters the classroom. Jun 2010, www.robertparker.com, Drink: 2011-2015
