Tasting note

Mature Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon may show blackcurrant and dried plum mellowed by cedar and earthy notes, with less emphasis on bright fruit. The 1995 Georges de Latour is expected to feel gentle and settled, mellow tannins and modest acidity shaping a lighter, more delicate palate. Its listed horizon has passed, so the finish may be brief, with dried berry, herbs and a faint savory warmth fading softly.
