2000 Ch. Latour Martillac Graves

[winoweenie]

The last of the non-classified growths I bought as futures. The best Martillac by a ton I've experienced. Clear deep ruby. Tar, flowers, anise, cigar-box and a real sense of earth in the nose. All come across on the palate. Strong center feel and a solid 4-lapper finish. Tons of tannins to shed. Needs another 9-12. Should be a beauty. 91/94. 14.99 by the box en premieur. WW Wont be opening any classified growths for another 5 years. Will probably be able to taste some of the big boys at the local shops down the line. What a ride these 2000s' are going top take us on.
