Latour's 1995 is a magnificent expression of Pauillac's First Growth potential, with its signature blend of near 75% Cabernet Sauvignon anchoring wines of exceptional purity and concentration. The wine shows jammy cassis, vanilla, and minerals in youthful yet developed aromatics. Matured in 100% new oak and crafted in 80 temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, this wine demonstrates the marriage of Latour's gravelly l'Enclos vineyard and meticulous winemaking. Ready to drink but built to age another 20+ years.

Antonio Galloni

"Deep ruby-red color. More expressive aromas of crystallized dark berries, dark chocolate and animal fur. Lush and sweet; thick but delineated. Wonderfully concentrated. This, too, seems rather withdrawn today, but the strength of material is clear to see. Finishes with firm tannins and explosive fruit that goes on and on." —Stephen Tanzer

Robert Parker

96 points

"A beauty, the opaque dense purple-colored 1995 exhibits jammy cassis, vanillin, and minerals in its fragrant but still youthful aromatics. Medium to full-bodied, with exceptional purity, superb concentration, and a long, intense, ripe, 40-second finish, this is a magnificent example of Latour. As the wine sat in the glass, scents of roasted espresso and toasty new oak emerged. This classic will require considerable cellaring." —Robert M. Parker, Jr.

"Lustrous deep crimson almost right out to the rim still. Hint of mint on the nose – quite aromatic. Pretty. Charming for a Latour grand vin! Though there is a strong undertow of graphite."

Decanter

97 points

"The nose showed warm and sunny, baked black and red fruit on the nose and a supple but dense texture. The impressive level of tannin noted in earlier tastings is softening now, and the wine is ready to drink but will hold. A lovely wine, outperforming the 1996 at this point. Picking was finished in September, taking place from the 13th to the 27th. The final blend is nearly three-quarters Cabernet Sauvignon, with just a drop of Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot and Merlot for the balance."

Wine Spectator

94 points

"Black licorice, cedar, cigar box and fresh herbs. Full-bodied and very structured, with firm, silky tannins and a long finish. Needs time."
