Tasting Notes

Vinous 90

The 1989 La Tour Blanche offers light crème brûlée and yellow fruit aromas. It’s not overly complex, but it is nicely focused. The palate is medium-bodied with toffee-ish notes. This is very tangy with a touch of Seville orange marmalade and what feels like a lot of residual sugar, although there is only 120 g/L. There’s just a slight attenuation on the finish, but it continues to give pleasure. Tasted at the La Tour Blanche vertical at the château. [Neal Martin, 25/03/2025]

Anticipated maturity: 2025-2040

Robert Parker 92

The 1989 La Tour Blanche is drinking well today, offering up aromas of honeysuckle, marmalade, preserved peaches and rose petals. Medium to full-bodied, sumptuous and enveloping, it’s fleshy and sensual, with a generous core of fruit, ripe but succulent acids and a long, perfumed finish. This has aged with grace. [William Kelley, 07/01/2022]

Anticipated maturity: 1999-2038
