90 / 100
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate April - 1995
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
The 1989 is the most loosely structured of the 1988, 1989 and 1990 vintages, but it reveals plenty of intense, honeyed fruit in a rich, authoritative, full-bodied format. A big, powerhouse, sweet, heavy wine with a penetrating fragrance of honey and flowers, this generously endowed wine already drinks well, but can easily last for 15-20 years.

Wine Spectator April - 1995

Intense and exotic; ripe and rich botrytis flavors explode on the palate to a long finish. Very sweet and full in body, it packs in the spice, white pepper, cream, coffee, quince and dried apricot notes.

Château Château La Tour Blanche
Château La Tour Blanche

Château La Tour Blanche is a Bordeaux wine estate that produces sweet white wines. Made from the traditional Sauternes grape varieties, Sémillon, Sauvignon and Muscadelle, this wine is the result of strict selection. The Château La Tour Blanche harvest is carried out through successive "passes" requiring 5 to 6 passes through the same row, to obtain only the best of Noble Rot.

Premier Cru Classé from Sauternes, each vintage of Château La Tour Blanche is vinified and aged in entirely new French oak barrels, and is kept for 20 to 24 months. However, the extreme quality policy at Château La Tour Blanche has led to certain vintages deemed merely passable not being bottled. This was the case for the 1992, 1993 and 2000 vintages. The average annual production is 40,000 bottles.
