Private Reserve Georges de Latour Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

1983

A little whiff of funk. Softer than the others- 100% cab but tastes like merlot in it. Supple and plummy. Lots of secondary stuff... herbs, dark wood. In great shape

I simply cannot get enough of these. Very alive, great structure. Yes, showing a little age but still a great wine.

So incredibly pretty. Blind we thought it was an old Barolo. Perfect old cab, surprised it was so alive for an 83.

Vertical tasting of BVPR with 27 vintages going back to 42
