Holding Thumbs

Beaulieu Vineyard

Private Reserve Georges de Latour Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1969

Holding up nicely! Bit of menthol, a little fruit hanging on and notes of tobacco. Silky tannin and a touch of orange rind on the palate. — 10 years ago

Last bottle of one of our favorites. Based on the last two, I think this is just past peak and would recommend drinking up if you're holding any. — 11 years ago

Thumbs up. Always consistent. One of the smoothest drinkable wines. Still young. His brothers will lay down for a few more years. — 10 years ago

I knew exactly what this would taste like before having the first sip. There's something wonderful in that.
