92 RP / 90 WS This wine has been fully mature and delicious for many years, so I was not surprised by how stunning this bottle was. It has always been an outstanding wine for the vintage - complex, rich, savory, and the...
98 RP / 96 WS / 95 WA / 95 WCI / 17.5 JR "One of my favorite vintage ports - the 1970 Fonseca - a great port in full maturity, but capable of lasting another 25-30 years.” - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate...
94 JS / 94 WS / 93 RP / 19 JR This is an extremely full-bodied, powerful wine, but it still retains a classy balance. Deep ruby, with chocolate and berry aromas, full-bodied, with anise and dried cherry flavors, full, hard...
92 WA / 17.5 JR The 1970 Château Haut-Brion is a First Growth that has probably been over-shadowed by the Latour 1970 during its lifetime. However, this bottle proves that it is not to be underestimated; it highlights...
90 WS / 16.5 JR Medium garnet; spicy vanilla nose, with cedar and cassis accents; very full-blown cassis flavor; very concentrated, generous and complex; has some volatile acidity, but it's not a flaw. - Wine...
96 WS Harmonious, supple and very generous, full-bodied, with ripe tannins; perfect to enjoy now but it should last, it's almost black in color and explodes with cassis and green olive aromas and flavors.--Château...
94 JA This definitely gives Giscours 1970 a run for its money in terms of being the sleeper of the Margaux appellation in this particular vintage. Plenty of depth and vibrancy to the colour (barely lighter than the 1990 by...
19.5 JR / 96 WA / 94 JS Very deep crimson. A very big-boned wine of great density. Some very strong menthol character with a touch of liquorice too and pretty dry on the finish. This seems to have taken on flesh since its...
90 WA / 16 JR The ’70 Les Forts de Latour has aged exceedingly well over forty years. A light, gravely, earthy, mulberry-scented bouquet that just lacks a little definition due to its rusticity. Medium-bodied on the...
95 WA The 1970 Lynch-Bages remains a massive, inky-colored wine with gobs of blackcurrant, cedary, ground beef, leathery flavors and aromas. This huge, ponderous wine is still youthfully powerful, but the ferocious tannins...
96 WI The 1970 Montrose is pale to medium tawny in color. Fragrant notes of Jasmine tea, dried cherries, and cranberries spill from the glass, leading to touches of rose oil, tobacco, and leather. Light to medium-bodied,...
96 WS / 94 VM / 93 RP / 16.5 JR Deep garnet; fragrant tar and black truffle nose; extremely concentrated; big and mouth-filling, with very dense cassis flavor; enormous, generous fruit; a voluptuous claret - Wine...
99 JS / 99 RP / 96 VM I drank this last year with some wine collector friends you guessed it: in Hong Kong! It’s a very special bottle I’ve been lucky enough to have tried on a number of occasions, and it...
94 WS One of the wines of the tasting. Fresh and complex, generous in character, with lovely dried cherry and spice aromas that follow through on the palate. Full-bodied, with concentrated fruit and firm tannins,...
99 RP / 99 WE / 98 WA / 98 WS / 18.5 JR 1970 Taylor is a sensational vintage port that is just hitting its peak of perfection. - Robert Parker, Hedonist's Gazette 10/1/2002 This house must certainly be the Latour...
91 JS / 16.5 JR Surprisingly delicate and fruity at this stage. Ready to drink with a lightly sweet fruit, raspberry, and dark berry character and a bright acidity. - James Suckling Tasted blind. Pale-mid tawny. A brawny...
