The 1987 Latour was made from 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Merlot, without any Cabernet Franc or Petit Verdot. The wine has a ruby color with some amber, and a promising bouquet of blackcurrants, spicy oak, and herbs. Medium-bodied, with more power and tannin than many wines of this vintage, it is one of the few 1987s that while ready to drink, can last for another 7-10 years.
Starting to lose a bit, but still delicious. Medium red color with an amber edge. Aromas of tobacco, cedar and berries, with hints of cigar box. Medium body, with light, silky tannins and a succulent, sweet fruit aftertaste.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 16/20 points.
