Bordeaux Total René Gabriel:
40 % Grand Vin. 94 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 5 % Merlot, 0.75 % Cabernet Franc, 0.25 % Petit Verdot. Sehr dunkles, tiefes Granat mit lila und violettem Rand. Grosses, erhabenes Cabernetbouquet, viel schwarze Beeren zeigend und ein Hauch Dörrbananen, Trüffel im Untergrund und schwarze Edelhölzer, bereits in der Nase eine Klasse für sich, Cabernet in nahezu perfekter Form. Im Gaumen setzt sich diese nasale Perfektion fort, feinste Tannine, königliche Adstringenz, alles ist nobel und von einer Eleganz, wie man es von einem jungen Cabernet Sauvignon selten in einem so frühen Stadium erwarten kann. Ein Masterpiece von einem Jahrgang bei dem solche grosse Weine eigentlich nicht zu erwarten waren. Heuer wurde nur 6 % Presswein verwendet. (Letztes Jahr 15 %)! 130'000 Fl. Produktion. Trinkreife 2020-2050. Bewertung 19/20. -René Gabriel-
Robert Parker Wine Advocate:
Composed of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 0.75% Cabernet Franc and 0.25% Petit Verdot, the 2008 Latour gives a medium to deep garnet color and slips sensuously out of the glass with Chinese five spice, unsmoked cigars, sandalwood and dried roses scents over a core of warm cassis, Black Forest cake, chocolate mint and smoked meats plus a waft of black olives and garrigue. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is well-sustained in the middle with generous black fruits and lovely red fruit sparks, layered with savory nuances and a firm, grainy backbone, finishing with bags of perfume and freshness. Drink Date 2019-2044. Rating 95/100. -Lia Perrotti-Brown-
Vinous:
The 2008 Latour is dark, brooding and virile, with huge tannins that convey an impression of gravitas. Grilled herbs, leather, sweet pipe tobacco, iron and cedar add to the wine's distinctive aromatic complexity. There is plenty of density and richness, but the color and slightly advanced flavor profile are a bit out of character. Ideally, at this stage Latour should exhibit more freshness and vibrancy. Of course, it is possible the 2008 might remain at this plateau for many years to come. Time will tell. The blend is 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot and drops of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Drink Date 2019-2038. Rating 93/100. -Antonio Galloni-
James Suckling:
Gorgeous aromas. Sandalwood and flowers, so perfumed and beautiful. Spices and currants with cassis too. Amazing nose. Such beauty and density with an iron and pure fruit character. Solid and racy. Best after 2015. Rating 95/100. -JamesSuckling.com-
Jancis Robinson:
Tasted blind. Hint of swampiness on nose. Thick, sweet and quite dramatic. Very dense. Lots of life here. Drink Date 2020-2040. Rating 17.5/20. -Jancis Robinson-
