12 vintage vertical tasting of BV Georges de Latour Private Reserve

This was an extraordinarily enjoyable evening hosted by Nelson Lemmon and Steve Dunn at the Cru Bourgeois gathering.  I had not tasted this extensively of the BV Private Reserve.  I like older wines so it was quite a treat.  

 It is difficult for me to take detailed notes at these get-togethers because everyone is just enjoying the evening and each others company. All of the wines showed very well and were delightful . I will list the vintages and note my favorites.

 First flight:
1971 - favorite 
1972 
1974
1975 - this was showing incredibly young on the palate and in the color of the wine
1976 - 2nd favorite
1977 

 Second flight:
1978
1979
1980
1981 - 2nd favorite 
1982 - favorite 
1994
