Concentrated black-cherry nose and very floral. Full, tannic, powerful Pinot Noir fruit; a classic ’96. Needs years, but lovely fruit lies under the structure. Hold this one while drinking the ’95 and ’97. (The “Domaine Latour” on the label means the grapes came from Latour’s home vineyard in Aloxe-Corton, where the Latour family resides.)——W.E.(11/15/1999)—— 90
