On 25 October 2009, several oenophiles gathered at the home of Mark Taylor. Mark, a long time collector, along with Yves Durand organized a vertical tasting of fourteen of the ready or nearly ready Chateau Latour vintages beginning from 1955.
Don Cornutt’s article on Mark Squires’ Bulletin Board on eRobertParker.com is replete with tasting notes and group rankings.
AND all of the older bottles were opened flawlessly with the Durand!
