bitter orange peels from Tunisia and nutmeg from Indonesia

But Croft has a knack of filling out with bottle age and becomes both gentle and generous with the passing years

and precocious of the northern Medocs

Latour - 1999 (750ml) Size:750ml bitter orange peels from TunisiaThe 1999 Latour doesn't quite dominate the competition the way the 1994 does, but it, too, is a lovely wine, exhibiting notes of blackcurrants, cigar wrapper, rich soil tones and creamy new oak. Medium to full bodied, deep and impressively concentrated, with velvety tannins, ripe acids and a long, expansive finish, it is showing beautifully today. Wine Advocate 94 points
