The 2008 Latour-à-Pomerol put in an odd showing compared to a fabulous couple of showing, admittedly several years ago. This has an open-knit bouquet with red berry fruit, cedar and mint, quite generous with orange rind scents emerging with aeration. After a few minutes it seems to disintegrate a little, just a touch of oxidation. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. It feels quite dense in the mouth but not overbearing, gently gripping the mouth but at the finish I find a nagging green note that I had not noticed before. Fingers crossed another bottle shows better. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 10-Year On tasting.Neal Martin1st May 2018
