Winemaker Notes
The 1995 Georges de Latour Private Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine of great elegance, grace, power and depth. This wine has an intense varietal character as well as an abundance of fruit with aromas of black cherry, currants and the distinctive Rutherford Dust bouquet. The palate is chock full of flavors of berry fruit, black olives, toasty oak and red currants finishing with a smooth, lingering aftertaste. It is a complete wine from our best vineyards crafted by our winemaker. This wine drinks well at release but will reward the patience of someone who chooses to age it for 5 or more years.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
1995 was a warmer vintage of lower yields from poor fruit set. The result is a relatively generous Georges de Latour Private reserve with lower acidity and a rich, opulent fruit profile. Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and aged for 22 months in 100% new oak (55% French and 45% American), the 1995 Cabernet Sauvignon Private Reserve Georges de Latour has a medium to deep brick color with expressive dried blackberries, Black Forest cake and crème de cassis notes plus hints of cigar box, bouquet garni and coffee beans. Full-bodied (the alcohol is 13.9%), concentrated, firm and grainy, the palate delivers loads of relatively youthful fruit, with seamless freshness, finishing long and spicy.

Wine Spectator
Really fruity, with an abundance of raspberry, violet and berry character. Full-bodied, with a velvety tannin structure and a long berry and toasted oak aftertaste. The oak is a bit dominant, so give it time to mellow.--Georges de Latour Private Reserve vertical. Best after 2004.
