Meticulously crafted in the Sauternes region of Bordeaux, France, the luxurious La Tour Blanche 1995 is an investment piece for the discerning wine aficionado. This prestigious wine is birthed from La Tour Blanche's esteemed vineyards, renowned for their dedication to embracing vital traditions while employing innovative viticultural techniques. Their wines are subjected to a measured ageing process in French oak barrels, honing an insurmountably rich, full-bodied profile. The 1995 vintage radiates a golden hue; its radiant colour only surpassed by its aromatic complexity. A nose boasting honeyed apricot, ripe peach and candied lemon peel tantalises the senses. On the palate, the La Tour Blanche 1995 vaunts a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity, clothed in flavours that mirror its aromatic spectrum. Highly rated by respected wine publications, La Tour Blanche 1995 is an exquisite embodiment of Sauternes' unique terroir and an outstanding testament to La Tour Blanche's viticultural excellence. |

Wine Advocate (93)The 1998 la Tour Blanche is medium gold in color with quite an earthy, savory nose giving up perfumed notions of orange blossoms and honeysuckle over preserved apricots, apple pie and allspice hints. It's wonderfully elegant, sophisticated and beautifully balanced in the mouth, with oodles of layers and epic length. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (93)The 2010 La Tour Blanche is well endowed on the nose with scents of acacia honey, yellow plum and orange rind, just a touch of saffron emerging with time (a leitmotif of this vintage.) The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. This feels spicier than its peers, finely tuned towards the finish with a touch of ginger on the aftertaste. Excellent.

Wine Advocate (84)Except for the 1966 and 1870 vintages of Lafite-Rothschild, these wines were poured on virgin territory on my palate. Isn't it ironic that the most disappointing wine (forgetting the spoiled 1875 Lafite-Rothschild, which had frightful levels of volatile acidity) was the youngest wine, the 1966 Lafite. With a light to medium ruby/garnet color, this wine exhibited a classy, weedy, herbal, Cabernet-dominated nose, soft, washed-out flavors, and little body and length. It is also beginning to dry out. I suppose if one were to taste a 30-year old Cabernet from Monterey County, California, it might reveal similar characteristics. The 1966 Lafite-Rothschild has consistently been a major disappointment from what is an irregular, but very good vintage. |

Light ruby with browning very much in evidence, this wine in the mid-1970s had a fragrant, spicy, charming bouquet, easygoing, simple fruity flavors, and light tannins. Now it is quite tired with old, faded, fruit flavors. Drink up! Anticipated maturity: Now-probably in serious decline. Last tasted, 12/80. |
