Over the years, this second label of Chateau Latour has occasionally dared challenge its parent, particularly when the wines — as here — are relatively young. Chateau Latour proper has years in front of it before it plateaus, but this wine has reached it. It's enough to cause confirmed pinot lovers to (briefly, perhaps) think again. Fruit, oak and tannins are all on the same page, the mouthfeel long and velvety, the fruit flavours still fully expressive of their cabernet parentage. Grilled wagyu, cooked so that the fat melted, but the meat was still rare and red.
