    Happy Birthday and thank you for giving a gift to us. A visit to Bordeaux is on my bucket list, with Chateau Latour the top winery, on that list. It was my first introduction to 1st growth Bordeaux and I can still remember how I felt when I first experienced Latour. Sadly, so out of my price range since the late 90s.
  • Happy birthday!! Way to visit Latour, a rarity indeed in terms of visits.
