"There are tannins structure and power but also supreme elegance. The 2004 acidity comes through in the sweet cassis flavors supported at the back by dry tannins. Currently the wine is closed up losing some of its fresh fruit but this is a moment in its slow evolution towards a classic Latour."
Jane Anson: 96 Points
A great moment to be drinking this Latour at 20 years old more ready than the 2005 right now. Black truffle ink cassis fruit crushed rocks firm tannins still muscular with the precision and heft that was typical of the estate in these years. Took its time to come round now showing finesse and class with decades ahead of it. Harvest September 23 to October 19.

"A terrific effort from Administrator Frederic Engerer and owner Francois Pinault the dark ruby/purple-tinged 2004 Latour exhibits a strong cassis character intermixed with notes of crushed rocks earth cedar and forest floor. Racy elegant but powerful with medium to full body and sweet tannin it will benefit from 5-7 years of cellaring and should keep for three decades. It is a very impressive offering."
Wine Spectator: 95 Points
"Captivating aromas of currant black licorice and spices with just a hint of sweet tobacco. Full-bodied with chewy tannins and a long long finish. Structured and racy."
