the 2018 les forts de latour is made up of 65.6% cabernet sauvignon, 34% merlot and 0.4% petit verdot, with 14.2% alcohol and an ipt (total polyphenol index) of 77. it was aged in 60% new oak. deep garnet-purple in color, it needs a fair bit of swirling to reveal notions of baked black cherries, cassis and blackberry pie with hints of pencil lead, clove oil, cardamom and allspice with a waft of violets. medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers impressive density with velvety tannins and a lively backbone supporting the generous black fruits, finishing long with all the earthy nuances coming through at the very end.
