1996 Latour

[barnesy]

The wine should be fine. Wine is pretty resiliant, a lot more so than some people give it credit for. Another plus, the wine was kept at a constant temp. While 74 isn't ideal, its better than wild fluctuations. From what I understand, 96 was a good year for bordeaux, so the wine should have some aging potential, especially being from one of the big boys. Another thing to look at is how much you trust this shop. Is there a more clandestine reason for the markdown or is it on the up and up?

Most of what I am saying is just a decently educated guess. It will either be agreed with by the more expert members or be disagreed with. I'm sure you'll get the info you're looking for.
