Tasting notes
Score 92/100 · Robert Parker, May 2020

A classic second wine that shows outstanding potential, the dark ruby/purple-colored 2002 has notes of cedar wood, black currants, earth, and truffles in a medium to full-bodied, supple-textured, beautifully concentrated style that can be drunk now or cellared for 10-15 years.

Pretty aromas of blackberries, vanilla and cherries follow through to a medium-bodied palate, with good tannins and a fresh finish. Nice wine. Second wine of Latour. Best after 2008. James Suckling,Wine Spectator 2005.
