Product Overview
97 Points - Wine Advocate
"The growing season was warm and sunny without temperature extremes, producing a beautifully balanced and, clearly, age-worthy wine. Medium brick-brown colored, the 1968 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve Georges de Latour bursts exuberantly from the glass with prunes, raisin cake, Chinese five spice, chocolate box, incense and tar notes plus wafts of dried roses, balsamic, candied violets, tobacco and a hint of tree bark. Full-bodied, rich, plush and seductive, the palate is stacked with tons of dried berries and exotic spice layers lifted by a bold line of freshness, finishing long with lingering notions of cloves and powdered cinnamon. There's loads of life left in pristine bottles such as this, so if you see any well-cellared bottles knocking about, snap ‘em up. Alcohol is a modest 12.5% for this vintage, and 14,260 cases were made." -LPB 5/31/2019
